EGSM goals
Achieving our ESGM goals will be a marathon of positive disruption and discovery, not a sprint – for management, employees, clients and suppliers alike. We are delighted that our journey has already started with great momentum including our goal to reach Net Zero by 2040. Some may argue that eighteen years or less is a very ambitious timetable, but we see it as a positive rallying cry to achieve what we must do for the good of our planet, our people and our profitability.
It is imperative that we put words into action and our performance will be tracked via metrics spanning our focus on the environment, our staff and our client interaction. Our ESGM goals for our financial year, ending 31 March 2023, are as follows:
