Dexterra Group fully recognizes the importance of ESG initiatives in developing and strengthening the growth trajectory of our organization. Through our approach, we aim to take a leadership role by advancing our understanding of sustainability data capture and reporting, developing strategic partnerships and implementing best practices to reduce the impact of our operations on the environment and make a positive contribution to the communities in which we live and work.
To achieve this goal, we aim to:
Our three pillars of sustainability guide our approach to ESG initiatives, while illustrating the value these activities bring to our organization and the communities and economies in which we operate.
Reducing our impact on the natural world
Our engagement with environmental initiatives extends not only to the immediate impact of our organization, but also to enabling our clients to meet their environmental performance objectives. Working collaboratively with clients and suppliers, we strive to be best in class at reducing waste; managing use of water, energy and raw materials; and protecting biodiversity wherever we operate.
Dexterra Group’s approach to environmental management is reflected in our integrated management system and meets the stringent legislative requirements in the jurisdictions in which we operate and the ISO 14001 Environmental Management standard.
