Q<br />
A<br />
What does Corporate<br />
Responsibility mean<br />
to Henry Boot?<br />
Corporate responsibility (CR) means<br />
addressing the key social, ethical<br />
and environmental impacts on our<br />
operations in a way that aims to<br />
bring value to all our stakeholders,<br />
including our shareholders.<br />
The measures we employ to manage our operations<br />
ensure everything we do is aligned to our Values to<br />
develop our businesses effectively, successfully and<br />
responsibly.<br />
Our CR programme and our Values coalesce<br />
to provide a strategic framework to develop a<br />
sustainable and responsible business by acting<br />
ethically; developing positive relationships with<br />
suppliers; taking care of our employees; taking<br />
responsibility for our impact on the environment;<br />
delivering support to our local communities; and<br />
delivering value to our customers, shareholders<br />
and other stakeholders.<br />
We continue to face a number of challenges in all<br />
our business operations; we must continue to act<br />
fairly and responsibly as it is not only the right thing<br />
to do but it also makes good business sense.<br />
We are working within increasingly complex<br />
regulations that impact on our businesses, our<br />
customers, the suppliers we trade with, the<br />
environment and the communities in which we<br />
operate. However, we believe we are making<br />
positive progress by trading responsibly and being a<br />
great employer.<br />
