Stakeholder Engagement

The sustainability of Murray & Roberts is dependent on our ability to fulfil our core purpose of delivering infrastructure that enables economic and social development in a sustainable way. To secure access to the capital resources we are required to maximise our contribution to the built environment – financial, manufactured, human, social and environmental capital – we need to maintain the trust of our stakeholders and thereby our licence to operate, and to conduct our operations in an ethical way while minimising our negative impact on the societies and the natural environment within which we operate. The ability to apply the appropriate resources to achieve all of this enables us to remain sustainably profitable.

SUSTAINABILITY FRAMEWORK

Murray & Roberts’ sustainability framework guides our approach to sustainable performance, shown below.

The framework sets out our aspiration to operate in an ethical and sustainable way by:

• Considering the views and concerns of our stakeholders in our strategic and operational decision-making
• Understanding and mitigating our risks in relation to our opportunities
• Applying best practice corporate governance beyond minimum requirements
• Managing world-class operations that are able to create and sustain value for clients, employees, shareholders, partners and suppliers, as well as the countries and communities in which we operate
• Managing all our impacts according to the principle of Zero Harm and the precautionary principle

Integrated reporting links back to our stakeholders and completes the cycle of accountability and inclusivity that ultimately underpins our sustainability.

The top ten concerns for our key stakeholder groups, as currently identified by management, are shown in the table below:
