This report covers the progress we made on our sustainability journey during the 2010 calendar year. This Report and other corporate information are available on our website at www.gammonconstruction.com Our Brands Front Coverphoti For Cathay Pacific’s new cargo terminal project, Gammon devised an innovative construction method Civil, foundations, building, E&M Public-Private Engineering design services (“the Beam Shutter”) for a safer and greener working and construction services covering Partnership business environment. plant and equipment, concrete technology and steel fabrication Gammon Sustainability Report 2010 1 Chief Executive’s Statement Some years ago, we at Gammon made the decision to embrace the sustainability agenda right across our business not only as a way of meeting our project requirements but also as a strong business strategy – our engine for growth. We believe that a robust sustainability strategy puts us in a leadership position within the construction industry and is a key factor in our continuing success as a business. During the past year, we saw considerable growth in Hong Kong’s construction industry, with corresponding falls in unemployment levels. These positive trends have intensified the issues of a fiercely competitive labour environment, an ageing workforce and growing skills shortages. The steps we have taken to develop our existing employees and bring new people into the industry through our training schemes are already showing good returns – but we must and will do more. Similarly, Gammon needs the best talent available to maintain our position as a sustainable business meeting the challenges of the future. We have been particularly active in our efforts to attract young engineering talent, so I was very pleased when graduates recognised us with the Hong Kong’s 100 Leading Graduate Employers Award and voted us Winner of Engineering Services Sector. The sustainability agenda is accelerating and we must work to higher environmental standards and community expectations. We aspire to play a leading role in the industry by raising the bar on our own activities and partnering with leading organisations. Developing and adopting construction methods and materials to reduce our environmental footprint will be vital to our future success. We are doing more than just complying with regulatory requirements and this, together with our green initiatives, will be a key differentiator for our brand. Our greatest objective at Gammon is to provide a safe environment for our workforce. Our Zero Harm programme launched two years ago goes beyond the traditional approach to safety and provides clear guidelines for reducing the risk of fatalities and serious injuries. 2010 saw further progress towards Zero Harm with low incident rates and no fatalities. It would be wrong, however, not to make reference to the two fatal accidents we suffered early in 2011 during the preparation of this report. Such tragedies pain us all greatly, and we will do everything we can to assist the affected families for whom we are profoundly sorry. This is a very difficult note on which to end but such tragedies only serve to strengthen our resolve to work harder in the pursuit of our Zero Harm goal. In this, there can be no compromises.

Economic growth and development drives all aspects of the construction industry through new infrastructure, urban buildings and regeneration, yet at the same time presents potential environmental, social and economic impacts to project proponents, the service providers and the wider public. Through the promotion and implementation of industry best practice and innovation, Gammon is committed to embracing sustainable business practices. Verification Statement The Business Environment Council (BEC) was commissioned by Gammon Construction Limited (Gammon) to provide a verification statement for its 2005 Sustainability Report “Sharing Our Journey” (the report). BEC conducted sample checks of the data and claims in the report through document and data review, interviews with responsible personnel, and visits to selected sites. Our findings are set out as below. Completeness of the report scope “Sharing Our Journey” provides a comprehensive and balanced account of Gammon’s commitment to sustainability across its core business activities and locations in which it operates. The report also exhibits the increasing reach of the “quadruple bottom line” approach in working with business partners and the wider community to address social, health and safety, environmental and economic considerations. We encourage Gammon to continue its embrace of Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) principles, and in particular to further engage stakeholders to help define the content, performance indicators and presentation of future reports.

As many have noted, M+ is more than simply a museum. 4 Designed by the renowned Swiss architectural firm Herzog & de Meuron, it has been hailed as a work of art in itself. I am gratified to note that it is a project that has successfully called on all of Gammon’s ingenuity since we took over as the Management Contractor in September 2018. Of course, it was a challenge to take over the project well after commencement of construction in early 2015, but we achieved that by winning the trust of contractors already at work onsite. Another challenge was building over the tunnels of the MTR’s Airport Express and the Tung Chung Line, but our experience on the Lyric Theatre project, which presented similar challenges, was great training. I am also thrilled and proud that we have been awarded the Terminal 2 Expansion Works, which is Gammon’s largest solo contract win to date. Our proposal for the project focused on offsite and modular solutions, particularly for electrical and mechanical elements, and also for much of the internal fit-out of the main building, including check- 18 in islands, retail shopfronts and link bridges.

As a contractor, we have contributed our expertise 4 to help curb the spread of the pandemic within the wider community. In February, Gammon was engaged to provide expert modular integrated construction (MiC) project management and MEP services in the fast- track construction of temporary quarantine facilities in Hong Kong. Consisting of 110 units in a two-storey configuration, it took just 64 days to complete all MiC fabrication, installation, tests and inspections. We also worked with the Institute of Healthcare Engineering and Estate Management (Hong Kong Branch) to construct Hong Kong’s first rapidly built high-standard negative-pressure isolation ward, also using an MiC approach. The demonstration unit showcases that it is possible to build these specialist isolation facilities in a fast- 20 track and cost-effective manner. The past few months have not been easy for any of us. I would like to personally thank our business partners’ support and thank all Gammon staff for their adaptability and resilience in these challenging times and urge Issue 1/2020 everybody to be ready to start afresh for a new chapter of Gammon’s history.
