Wa are FCC - Nº16

FCC develops policies, control sys- tems and initiatives, both corporate and in each of its business lines, with the objective of combating climate change, reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and integrating the goals and indicators established in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as part of its strategy. The company has a corporate clima- te change strategy, approved in 2012 and currently under review under the new 2020 CSR Master Plan, to adapt it to new legislation and the la- test agreements. The objective of this strategy is to mitigate the risks asso- ciated with climate change by also ta- king advantage of identified business opportunities. FCC’s contribution to the Circular Economy In order to materialize its commitment to sustainable development and to mitigate the effects associated with climate change, in 2017 FCC joined the Pact for a Circular Economy, promoted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, Food and Environment together with the Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness of the Spanish Government. The FCC Group’s involvement in complying with ethical and socially responsible standards drives the com- pany to go one step further, and it is in November of the same year when a program called the FCC Plan for a Circular Economy is drawn up as a key pillar of its 2020 CSR Master Plan. Pillars Communication Share with FCC’s stakeholders its climate change strategy and thus improve the company’s po- sitioning. Monitoring Perform calculations of the group’s GHG emissions, carbon footprint and products and services under international standards. Innovation Design and offer more efficient and less carbon-intensive products and services, based on continuous innovation. Reduction Reduce the group’s carbon foo- tprint by offering more sustainable products and services. Adaptation Adapt to changes in rules, regula- tions and trends by providing new services. . Since its inception, the FCC Group has remained committed to the pro- gress of the societies and communi- ties where it operates. The develop- ment of cities brings with it important challenges: population growth, cli- mate change, resilience to natural disasters, inequality and scarcity of natural resources, among others. For the company, these challenges modi- fy its competitive environment and, in turn, drive the commitment to provide solutions to them as well as to detect opportunities linked to its business.
