Only 35% of Sustainability-Focused Organisations have achieved the recognition in the last 12 months
Berkeley Services Group (BSG), a leading facilities management company and a member of Klüh International Multi Services, recently received the bronze medal in the EcoVadis assessment. The achievement solidifies BSG's position among the vanguard of sustainability-focused companies worldwide, with only 35% of organisations achieving the prestigious recognition in the last 12 months. The success in the EcoVadis assessment underscores the facilities management company’s steadfast dedication to sustainability, social responsibility, and ethical business practices.
At the heart of BSG's sustainability journey lies a set of meticulously crafted policies aimed at promoting environmental stewardship, enhancing human resources, and ensuring sustainable procurement practices. Under the guidance of its dedicated leadership team, BSG has pioneered initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint and foster a culture of sustainability across its operations.
A noteworthy accomplishment is the completion of an ESG Materiality assessment, which enabled BSG to evaluate its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices comprehensively. This assessment allowed BSG to identify areas for improvement and align its strategies with global sustainability goals. Additionally, BSG has set a benchmark in sustainable procurement by conducting CSR self-assessments and ESG audits for suppliers, thus establishing high standards for ethical sourcing practices in the industry.
Berkeley has demonstrated its commitment to environmental conservation through active participation in CSR programmes such as tree planting, the UAE clean-up campaign, and e-waste collection drives. By engaging employees, suppliers, and the local community in these initiatives, BSG reinforces its adherence to ESG principles while simultaneously promoting the sustainable development agenda. Additionally, the facilities management firm extends its support to local NGOs, further exemplifying its role as a responsible corporate citizen.
Looking ahead, BSG remains committed to driving positive change and setting new standards for sustainability excellence within the FM industry. Through continued innovation, collaboration, and leadership, BSG aims to further elevate its ESG performance and inspire others to join the journey towards a more sustainable future.
