FM Conway ESG Ratings Report 2021

Summary FM Conway is committed to delivering excellence across Environmental, Social and Governance issues. Our history is one of Thought Leadership, Championing of Materials Recycling, Recycled Asphalt Products, and the Circular Economy; a proactive approach to sustainability and adding social value is both our history and our future. Our recent ten-year strategy shapes the outlook of the company based on the three pillars of Self- Delivery, Carbon and Environment, and Technology. We believe that this is an excellent foundation for maintaining and improving our ESG performance as Self-Delivery gives us much greater control over every aspect of our performance, technological innovation will keep us substantially ahead of our competition, and a focus on carbon and recycling means that we will achieve our ambitions without compromising future generations. Our comprehensive Sustainability Strategy has improvement targets for every aspect of our performance, both environmental and social, and the Company is committed to achieving ‘net zero’ by 2045, five years ahead of the UK Government target. Our Sustainability Strategy has over 40 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) helping to measure our progress in shaping our aspirations for the future. A key element of our aspirations for the future is based on driving materials innovation. Our materials portfolio is developed to deliver sustainable solutions which address the current climate emergency and meet the evolving needs of the construction industry. We have a UKAS accredited laboratory at our Technology Centre and its facilities play a vital role in our commitment to innovation in sustainable material solutions. It ensures we can design, test, and produce these solutions which allow us to continually raise the bar on material innovation. Our commitment to the environment is matched by our commitment to our communities. The Conway Charitable Foundation was established in 2013 and donates significant finance and time to our charity partners both national and local. In addition to the work of the Foundation, our work experience and apprenticeship programme, our award-winning work with veterans and the disabled, and our partnership with the London Construction Academy, (a pre-employment programme supporting the disadvantaged), supports us in our efforts to take an inclusive approach in offering insights and opportunities within our industry. Finally, and underpinning everything we do, is our commitment to Health, Safety and Wellbeing. Our people are our greatest asset and therefore ensuring the workplace is somewhere where they can thrive is very important to us. Our Big Ten in 10, Health and Safety programme is looking to remove operational risk from activities which on previous data have caused the most harm in our industry, our championing of Fairness, Inclusion and Respect (FIR) as well as our pro-active commitment to Mental Health forms the basis of a workplace where our people feel safe, valued, and respected. FM Conway also takes a comprehensive approach to combating Modern Slavery in all its forms throughout our operations. Our ESG commitments are the foundation of a future as successful as our past, a company based on safety, innovation, and sustainability. A company which works with integrity, and in collaboration with our customers and wider stakeholders to deliver commercial excellence based on respecting of the environment and the supporting of our communities.
