Our aim is to help our customers create better buildings while
leaving a positive legacy. We focus on the key environmental
and social issues where we can collaborate with our peers to
make a real difference to the built environment. These include
energy efficiency and carbon; waste; sourcing products and
services in a responsible and ethical way; water efficiency
and being good neighbours. By integrating these principles
throughout our projects, we can deliver more sustainable
buildings for our customers and help to shape the communities
around them.
Corporate responsibility and sustainability are embedded in
everything that we do and our efforts are coordinated by our
teams, led by our Chief Executive Officer, Alan Chales. Our
code of conduct sets out the ‘Codes Construction Way’, so that
everyone knows what’s expected of them. It’s based on our
values of performance, respect for people & communities,
intelligence, teamwork and integrity.
The Construction industry has a major impact on the
environment and faces significant challenges in making
environmental improvements. We are committed to protecting the
environment and ensuring that our actions today do not have an
adverse effect on the future.
Responsible Sourcing is also one of our key priorities. We aim
to ensure that our supply chain understands the sustainability
challenges the Construction sector faces and that the
materials we buy are procured in a responsible and ethical
way.
