Effective sustainability governance, reporting and engagement

An effective sustainability programme relies on robust governance and engagement.

In 2024, we updated our materiality assessment. The review introduced three new material issues: responsible technology, biodiversity, and sustainable resource use and sourcing. We have also incorporated flexible working into an overarching health and wellbeing theme.

Priorities

  • Robust sustainability governance: Ensure Director-level and senior management involvement in sustainability management.

  • Ongoing supplier engagement: Enhanced external communications with effective and regular engagement with employees on sustainability issues.

2024 highlights

  • We updated our materiality assessment to ensure our ESG programmes are focused on the most important issues.

Our approach

01: Robust sustainability governance

We operate a robust sustainability governance structure. There is an Executive Director-led management committee to oversee our sustainability strategy, monitor climate-related risks and opportunities and our performance against targets. There is also a management committee comprising senior managers leads on the implementation of programmes and meets four times a year. Progress on our ESG objectives is delivered through thematic working groups and departmental initiatives.
