What is ESG?
ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance, three key areas that guide responsible and sustainable development. At Dandara, we’ve reviewed these pillars to identify the areas where we make an impact, both positively and negatively, based on the risk and opportunities associated with our day-to-day operations.
Key ESG priorities relevant to our operations and activities include:
- Environment: Climate change mitigation and reduction in energy, carbon, water and waste.
- Social & Governance: Creating a positive impact in the local community, including improved local infrastructure, area regeneration, and employee wellbeing. We also focus on the values, ethics and management of our business, including DEI (Diversity, Equality & Inclusion), accountability, and transparency.
