Sustainability is no longer just a trend; it has firmly established itself as a key priority for businesses that creates long-term value for an organisation, its people, clients and communities.
There is increasing pressure on organisations to demonstrate transparency regarding their sustainability commitments, as well as to disclose the non-financial impacts of their operations.
While this is the first report looking closer at sustainability at Grant Thornton Australia, we have built sustainable working practices into our strategy, culture and governance over our activities. We have thrived as a business because of our connection to our people, clients and the community, and in the process of developing this report we engaged with these core stakeholders to determine the key impact for us.
This report provides a closer look at our firm’s initiatives designed to create a culture based on our CARE values of Collaboration, Authenticity, Responsibility and Excellence. It provides information about the most material focus areas for Grant Thornton; our people, our clients, and our community and also highlights some of our work in relation to the environment and our approach to governance.
This document represents a first step in a continued and evolving process of setting objectives, monitoring against those objectives, reporting on our achievements and continued focus areas in sustainability.
