Our sustainability policy

Our purpose is to sustain and improve the quality of people’s lives.

We believe our greatest contribution to sustainability is through the long-term environmental outcomes of the projects undertaken for our clients.

In delivering these projects, we recognise the contribution to be made through our own operational efficiency, which is the subject of a separate corporate responsibility policy.

We have a reputation for honesty, integrity and delivering on our commitments. It is essential that we build on and enhance this reputation if we are to continue to deliver our purpose.

How we will deliver

High standards of sustainable development and environmental performance are fundamental to our purpose, and are an integral part of our business strategy. They require us to be profitable; to deliver projects and services to the best ethical and the most appropriate technical standards; to respect people and the environment; to listen to people both inside and outside the group; and to be transparent in what we are doing and how we are doing it. Our business success is founded upon recognising these imperatives.
