ESG
We are committed to enhancing disclosure and accessibility of information relating to our impacts on the economy, environment and society that indicate our contribution to sustainable development.
During FY21 our ESG Committee developed IMDEX’s Sustainability Policy. The purpose of this Policy is to outline the commitment our Company has to practices, standards and technologies that support sustainable development.
Upholding our Sustainability Policy is the responsibility of everyone engaged at IMDEX and applies to all directors, officers, contractors, and employees. Our Chief Executive Officer is accountable to the Board for the oversight of all sustainability matters in accordance with this Policy.
Our Sustainability Reports outline our key ESG focus areas, material topics and contributions to sustainable development. It covers all IMDEX subsidiaries.
Material topics are the significant environmental, social and governance topics that currently impact our business, may impact our business in the foreseeable future and most influence our stakeholders’ perceptions of our performance. These topics form the basis of these reports. We will continue to build on these topics in subsequent years.
