Sustainability – ESG
Vetaphone has long recognized the importance of acting with accountability and integrity in its operations, and this ethos aligns closely with the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. The company acknowledges that as businesses grow, so too does their responsibility towards society and the environment. Vetaphone fully supports the European Union’s initiative to encourage transparency and sustainability in corporate conduct.
Vetaphone recognizes that companies differ greatly in their operations, from production to transportation, data management, and workforce dynamics.
As such, ESG reports must be tailored to the unique nature of each business. For Vetaphone, as a production company, our primary focus is on the environmental (“E”) aspect, while we also place a strong emphasis on social responsibility (“S”), ensuring fair treatment of employees and maintaining a positive role within the local community. Governance (“G”) is equally important, as it forms the foundation for both our environmental and social initiatives.
To assess our performance, we have employed the internationally recognized Ecovadis database, where we reported our data across Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. This methodology allows us to track our environmental impact while providing transparency to both suppliers and clients.
Our overall Ecovadis score of 56, on a scale of 1 to 100, is considered “good” and aligns with the average for similar companies. We are pleased with this tool as it not only enables us to measure our current progress but also serves as a benchmark for future improvements.
