Our approach to sustainability

Organisation of our sustainability efforts

Sustainability is a core component of Saferoad Group's strategic planning and management systems. The Board of Directors has the highest level of accountability for sustainability issues, while the Group management team oversees the day-to-day operational aspects of the  sustainability strategies.

At Group level, the Head of ESG is responsible for integrating the sustainability agenda within the company's strategic goals across the Group.

Our four business areas are tasked with developing action plans and fulfilling key performance indicators (KPIs) deemed critical to their sustainable performance tracking.

To support these endeavours, the Group has established an ESG Functional Team. This team ensures an integrated approach to sustainability and social responsibility throughout the Group. The ESG Functional Team includes members from the operational units and from various support functions, providing a comprehensive mix of insight and expertise.

These priorities are designed to amplify positive impacts while mitigating risks, ensuring that our operations, culture, and engagements are conducted with integrity, foresight, and a shared responsibility towards the planet and its people.
