We’re recognized for our ESG commitments and actions
Our material sustainability topics
We identify, prioritize and report on sustainability topics material to our business, and our stakeholders.

Climate change position statement (CCPS)
As the world seeks to urgently reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero, our role is clear. We’re increasing our focus on the decarbonization of the energy, chemicals and resources sectors.
We’re also making assets more resilient to climate change. Supporting the protection of biodiversity. Accelerating the deployment of technology. And transforming the way we design, build and operate assets to ensure we're delivering a more sustainable world.
There’s a lot of work to be done this decade. But we’re not doing it alone. Collaboration is central to our approach. We’re working with our customers and creating partnerships to find solutions that enable sustainable growth. And we’re supporting our people and communities to ensure an inclusive transition.
In FY2024:
- we’ve reduced our Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 7% since FY2023, with almost two-thirds of this reduction coming from purchasing and retiring RECs (or equivalent instruments) and renewable energy contracts
- we’re reporting all 13 applicable Scope 3 categories for the first time.
