Sustainability management

SRV’s key sustainability themes are brought together in a sustainability programme that follows the ESG framework. The aim is to ensure that sustainability work supports the company’s strategic objectives and strengthens the business in an increasingly demanding operating environment. SRV also seeks to act as an innovative and continuously developing professional in sustainability matters.

Sustainability is managed within SRV’s governance structure. The Board of Directors approves the company’s sustainability policies and principles and is committed to the targets set in the sustainability programme. The Corporate Executive Team is responsible for sustainability work, which is led by the Senior Vice President, Communications and Marketing. Day-to-day work is coordinated by the Sustainability and HSEQ Manager in close cooperation with representatives from the business units and central support functions. Safety development is led by the Safety Manager, and environmental matters are overseen by the Environmental Manager.

ESG-based sustainability programme

In our sustainability work, we take responsibility for environmental and social impacts and operate in line with good governance practices.

Our long-term sustainability targets are:

We aim to be a carbon-neutral company by 2030.
We are committed to the Zero Accidents vision.

SRV’s sustainability programme is based on the company’s material sustainability themes, which are updated regularly through staff surveys and stakeholder dialogue. We have identified three megatrends that shape these themes: denser urban environments, accelerating climate change and increasing digitalisation. These megatrends guide the development of our sustainability priorities and the actions we take.

SRV’s value creation model

The impacts of our business on society and stakeholders are described in SRV’s value creation model, which forms the basis for our materiality assessment in sustainability.

SRV’s operations have significant and long-term impacts on the surrounding society. The greatest influence arises from the buildings and infrastructure we construct, which remain in use for decades, in some cases for more than a century. Sustainable design and construction therefore play a central role in both mitigating and adapting to climate change.

Ethical guidelines and reporting channel

SRV’s ethical guidelines provide a solid foundation for all our activities. By acting responsibly, we help ensure that SRV continues to be regarded as a trusted and valued partner by clients, subcontractors and other stakeholders.

Policies and reporting guiding sustainability

SRV’s sustainability work is guided by our quality, environmental, occupational health and safety, and procurement policies. Practical guidelines complement these policies and clarify the principles set out in our ethical guidelines and company policies.
