OUR STRATEGY Sustainability
We also recognise that for New Zealand and the other countries in which we operate, there are a range of important social and environmental issues that are not covered by these Sustainable Development Goals. Over time we will be challenging ourselves on how we can contribute positively to these. By 2030 we intend to be making progress against the wider set of goals. Taking a leadership role in sustainability will mean taking strong positions on issues that are of importance to the business and our stakeholders. Our stance on working with lines that, where possible, are de-energised is an example of an area where we have prioritised the safety of our workers over the penalties we may incur from missing targets. But we also recognise that addressing some of the more significant sustainability challenges will require innovative and potentially disruptive solutions. To work with us in this process we are partnering with Forum for the Future, an organisation that has vast international experience in transforming both individual businesses and whole industries to create a sustainable and equitable future.
