Governance

Governance of the business and sustainability efforts relates to our core value of integrity – doing what’s right, being an ethical, transparent and socially responsible company, declaring our impacts and efforts to reduce them and demonstrating good governance.

Governance of corporate sustainability is addressed through the following means:

  • Executive directors (ExCo) at the Safety and Environmental Action Committee are responsible for overall direction and guidance.
  • The Sustainability Steering Group report back to ExCo on initiatives and progress on sustainability targets and actions.
  • The Project and Operations Environmental Working Group addresses project site-based operational issues.

As our industry is one that comes with many risks, risk management remains a critically important discipline for us. Our risk management approach covers all elements of our operations including tenders, projects, functions, and corporate level operations.

Further information about our overall governance structure and risk management approach can be found in our Sustainability Report.
