This is our first annual report and will provide the benchmark by which all future progress will be measured.
In 2022 we partnered with the ESG consultancy firm Sustainable Advantage to assess 47 specific ESG areas. We evaluated Rouse’s impact on employees, communities, customers and the environment – all areas that are relevant to our business and industry. The assessment resulted in a numeric score that has enabled Rouse to develop a roadmap for continuous ESG improvement.
Rouse’s inaugural ESG report outlines our comprehensive approach to diversity, environmental responsibility, employee engagement and governance. We are represented by over 20 ethnic groups and have a 72% female workforce, while our carbon-footprint management is on a clear path towards Net Zero emissions by 2050. With an enhanced corporate governance model, Rouse upholds the highest standards of ethical practice and risk management.
This report reflects our progress and achievements for 2022-2023, as well as our ambitious goals for the future. We aim to integrate sustainability into every aspect of our operations and engage with our stakeholders transparently and proactively.
