Being socially, economically and environmentally responsible in all that we do is crucial to the success we’ve achieved to date, and to the continued sustainability of our business. Our purpose is to assure a sustainable future and our approach to Responsible Business helps us deliver this.
We’ve developed our Responsible Business policy, and prioritised key issues within it, through understanding our material issues within the UN Sustainable Development Goals and by addressing how we can ensure the goals are met a local level. The Goals are a series of areas for action across all countries by 2030 and are described by the UN as the ‘blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all’.
We focus on three themes: Our People, Our Partners and Our Planet.
Ensuring Team Robertson are safe, healthy and happy
Cultivating a diverse and inclusive workforce who are treated with respect
Empowering our people by providing them with the best learning opportunities and resources
Engaging communities we work in, creating social value and enabling inclusive growth
Developing and supporting a responsible supply chain
Delivering quality projects, satisfying and supporting our customers
Minimising our carbon footprint, utilities consumption and environmental impact
Minimising our transport emissions and supporting active and sustainable travel options
Driving down our raw resource consumption and maximising reuse and recycling
Moving forward, all business activity will align with our 2030 vision and ultimately assist the achievement of three key targets, one dedicated to each of our Responsible Business policy themes:
As well as our customers and our supply chain, we also work alongside a range of membership, accreditation and industry bodies to help us to remain at the forefront of new and innovative responsible business practices and to benchmark ourselves against others.
