Sustainability (ESG)
Introduction
Sustainability is core to the way we operate.
Our work for our clients gives us a natural
global perspective and deep understanding
of the impact of what we do. We have
made great progress against each of
our four corporate sustainability pillars –
environment, people, community and
governance. We are proud of the work
we have accomplished to date, none of
which would have been possible without
the unwavering dedication of our people
around the globe.

We believe in transparent, comprehensive and
timely reporting and continue to improve the
transparency and credibility of our environmental,
social and governance ("ESG") disclosures through
the adoption of globally recognised sustainability
reporting standards. Measuring and benchmarking
our corporate sustainability initiatives, targets and
progress demonstrates our commitment to continuous
improvement in achieving and maintaining high
standards of corporate sustainability in our business
activities and interactions with our people, our clients,
our suppliers, our investors, our community and the
environment around us.
Organisations that we work with to help us achieve high
standards of corporate sustainability reporting include:
GRI
SASB Standards
Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures
United Nations Global Compact
STAKEHOLDER FRAMEWORK
Initiating and maintaining dialogue with our
stakeholders enables the Group to align our
sustainability initiatives and business models to their
concerns. We recognise three distinct levels of RWS
stakeholders in our framework, with our clients,
colleagues and investors being the central stakeholders
for the Group. We increased our focus on stakeholder
issues in two ways – by increased engagement with our
stakeholder groups and through a review of our material
corporate sustainability topics and emerging issues
using Datamaran’s software.
