ENVIRONMENTAL, SUSTAINABILITY & GOVERNANCE POLICY

Our Commitment to the Environment with Sustainable Construction

At BHR Commercial Construction, we recognise the profound impact that the construction industry can have on the environment. What we do affects communities, and the overall well-being of society.

We take our responsibilities in these respects seriously. We’re a forward-thinking construction company, committed to upholding the highest standards of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. Our dedication to sustainability, ethical practices, and corporate responsibility is woven into the fabric of our operations, always guiding our decision-making processes.

It’s important to us that we contribute positively to the world around us.

Here’s how we do that.

Governance Excellence

1. Ethical Business Practices:

Transparency, honesty, and integrity have always been fundamental principles for our team. They guide our interactions with every stakeholder – clients, partners, employees and suppliers. The highest ethical standards are woven into all our business dealings. We couldn’t imagine behaving in any other way.

2. Compliance with Regulations:

We diligently comply with all relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards. We have a  governance framework that monitors our actions and ensures that we are accountable for them. It’s key for us to operate within the legal and ethical boundaries of the construction industry.

3. Stakeholder Accountability:

Our stakeholders are critical to our business. Whether they are employees, partners, clients, investors, suppliers or the communities we serve, we know we are accountable to them. Clear, regular communication and engagement is integral to our work practices. We have an embedded commitment to responsible business practices.

Continuous Improvement

We evaluate our ESG practices in an ongoing process. By regularly assessing our impact on the environment, society, and people, we aim to enhance our performance and contribute positively to the sustainability of the construction industry. Our governance structure supports our work in this area.

At BHR Commercial Construction, ESG is not just a set of policies; it is a guiding philosophy that shapes our identity as a responsible corporate citizen. We invite our stakeholders to join us on this journey towards a more sustainable and socially responsible future.
