Change in reporting process

The United Nations Global Compact is officially changing the reporting process from 2023. The change sees the process move from the current report in a narrative format to an online input of responses to a standard set of questions. This move is to ensure consistency of reporting across all United Nations Global Compact participants.

Aurecon accepted the offer from the United Nations Global Compact to participate in an Early Adopter programme. This means Aurecon will report in the new platform this year. You can view the online 2022 Communication on Progress submission on Aurecon’s participant page on the United Nations Global Compact website. However, Aurecon will continue to provide a sustainability report in a narrative format too.

Climate change commitment

In December 2020, Aurecon made a commitment to achieve net zero emissions in its operations by 2025, as part of its plan for a 100 per cent net zero emissions future. Paul Gleeson, Group Director, Sustainability & Managing Director, Energy – Australia & New Zealand said, “We will achieve our targets through risk-based decisions, balancing investment in emissions reduction measures against offsets. Over time we expect the need for offsets will reduce.”

Further resources

The Sustainability and Environment pages of the Aurecon website contain more detail on how the company is creating long-term client, employee, and environmental value and actively taking part in the journey towards a zero emissions future.
