Caverion receives EcoVadis Gold rating for sustainability
EcoVadis, the world’s largest provider of business sustainability ratings, has granted Caverion a Gold rating in their recent assessment. The Gold rating is awarded for scoring within the top 5% in the industry and within the top 8% of all evaluated companies world-wide.
EcoVadis assessment focuses on 21 sustainability criteria that are grouped into four themes: environment, labor & human rights, ethics and sustainable procurement. Compared to the silver rating last year, Caverion has made a significant progress in integrating sustainability to its strategy, improving safety performance and committing to emission reductions.
“This is the first time we got EcoVadis Gold rating for Caverion group-wide and I’m really happy of this recognition. Sustainability is one the key themes of our new strategy, Sustainable Growth. We are also currently in the process of setting science-based emission reduction targets, including electrifying our vehicle fleet as soon as the market allows,” says Kari Sundbäck, Executive Vice President, Services, Solutions, Digital and Strategy at Caverion.
EcoVadis rating criteria are based on international sustainability standards, including the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, the International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards and the ISO 26000 standard. Founded in 2007, EcoVadis has assessed more than 90,000 companies across 200 industry categories in more than 160 countries.
