Investing In Our People
Improvement Plan
Governance Score
Governance evaluates a company's overall mission, engagement around its social and environmental impact, ethics, and transparency. This section also evaluates the ability of a company to protect their mission and formally consider stakeholders in decision-making through its corporate structure (e.g. benefit corporation) or corporate governing documents.
We are delighted with our Governance score of 83% and are aiming to maintain and hope to improve this going forward.
83%
Workers Score
Workers evaluates a company’s contributions to its employees’ financial security, health & safety, wellness, career development, and engagement & satisfaction. In addition, this section recognises business models designed to benefit workers, such as companies that are at least 40% owned by non-executive employees and those that have workforce development programmes to support individuals with barriers to employment.
We have worked hard to improve on our Workers score of 71% and have plans in place for further improvements.
71%
Community Score
Community evaluates a company’s engagement with and impact on the communities in which it operates, hires from, and sources from. Topics include diversity, equity & inclusion, economic impact, civic engagement, charitable giving, and supply chain management. In addition, this section recognises business models that are designed to address specific community-oriented problems, such as poverty alleviation through fair trade sourcing or distribution via microenterprises, producer cooperative models, locally focused economic development, and formal charitable giving commitments.
We acknowledge that our Community score is below par and that we have work to do! Our aim is to improve our score across all community aspects over the next couple of years.
46%
Environment Score
Environment evaluates a company’s overall environmental management practices as well as its impact on the air, climate, water, land, and biodiversity. This includes the direct impact of a company’s operations and, when applicable, that of its supply chain and distribution channels. This section also recognises companies with environmentally-innovative production processes and those that sell products or services that have a positive environmental impact. Some examples might include products and services that create renewable energy, reduce consumption or waste, conserve land or wildlife, provide fewer toxic alternatives to the market, or educate people about environmental problems.
Whilst we operate in a sector with a Significant Environmental Footprint, we’ve always set out to deliver our projects with zero waste to landfill.
Our aim is to improve on our score, especially under Environmental Management, Water, and Land & Life.
66%
Customer Score
Customers evaluates a company’s stewardship of its customers through the quality of its products and services, ethical marketing, data privacy and security, and feedback channels. In addition, this section recognises products or services that are designed to address a particular social problem for or through its customers, such as health or educational products, arts & media products, serving underserved customers/clients, and services that improve the social impact of other businesses or organisations.
We are delighted with our Customers score of 96% and are aiming to keep this up going forward.
