Sustainability Governance Model

Why it matters

Our sustainability governance model ensures that environmental, social and economic goals are fully aligned with our operational strategy. It creates accountability by clearly defining roles, responsibilities and decision-making structures. 

The model helps us reduce and manage risks related to climate change, social inclusion, regulations and stakeholder expectations. It also supports transparent reporting and compliance with ESG standards and frameworks. Most importantly, it integrates sustainability into the core of our business operations and culture, helping both us and our customers meet responsibility commitments, particularly in reducing carbon footprints.
