2017 Sustainability Profile
(Translation from the Italian original which remains the definitive version) 2017 Sustainability profile 2017 consolidated non-financial statement G4-1 Dear readers, Here is our sustainability profile, our calling card that presents our group’s daily commitment to save the environment, protect our workers, innovate and dialogue with our stakeholders. We are aware that the construction sector has always been a driving force for the economy and the generation of well-being. We “construct” with great responsibility as we know the potential impacts our activities can have on the surrounding area. The world is looking to a new social, economic and environmental development model. Two important testimonies are the United Nations’ approval of the Agenda for Sustainable Development and the related goals to be achieved by 2030 and the circular economy as a proactive answer to the crisis of the linear economic system. Though there are still political, economic and social barriers to fully reaching these ambitious goals, Astaldi is ready to embrace this challenge as we are certain that sustainability will play an ever more significant role in construction in coming years. This sector has always been tied to the ability of its players to manage and convert certain global challenges, including urbanisation, climate change and the increasingly pressing shortage of material, energy and water resources, into potential opportunities, including new market share. By integrating sustainability into our business, we get a better insight into our industry, thus boosting our ability to grasp new market challenges. We have no doubt that competition between top international players will continue to heighten and a pivotal factor will lie in each company’s ability to thoroughly diversify its products, drive ahead on innovation and draw in the expert and talented people needed to execute large technologically-advanced projects. -
