Responsible Business

Responsible Business Strategy

Our Responsible Business Strategy sets out medium-term objectives which we aim to achieve by the end of 2025. It aims to incorporate and align our approach to environmental, social and governance (ESG) with our commercial strategy and to ensure our activity and performance is influenced by our Purpose and Values.

The Strategy is guided by 3 key objectives:

To further embed ESG factors into our commercial decision making, so that we adapt our business ensuring long-term sustainability and value creation for our stakeholders.

To empower and engage our people to deliver long-term meaningful change and impact for the communities and environments we work in.

To authentically address those issues deemed to be most significant and material to our business and hold ourselves accountable by reporting regularly on our progress.
