Effective sustainability governance, reporting and engagement

An effective sustainability programme relies on robust governance and engagement.

In 2022, we expanded our sustainability and climate change governance structure, introducing new working groups to deliver our programmes. Executives and senior managers have also run briefings for staff on key sustainability themes, including climate change and diversity. We have also expanded our internal communications, increasing the frequency and channels of communication.

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.

2022 highlights

  • We expanded our sustainability and climate change governance structure, introducing new working groups to deliver on our programmes.

  • Executives and senior managers have run regular staff briefings and presentations for staff on our sustainability programme.

  • We conducted a review of our material sustainability 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. We have also introduced working groups for each key workstream.
