Corporate Governance

Our goal is to partner with Suppliers to deliver value-for-cost procurement for the Group and our customers, and to demonstrate responsible supply chain management.

This Notice sets out our commitment to complying with data protection laws, keeping personal data secure and only using it for legitimate purposes in a transparent manner.

We conduct our business in a manner that leads to creating a healthy and safe environment for all stakeholders built on a true safety culture.

We are committed to operating our business fairly and ethically and we reiterate our commitment to the prevention of modern slavery and human trafficking in our business and our supply chain.

We are committed to conducting business responsibly and creating value for all stakeholders. We take that commitment seriously at each stage of our procurement process and we expect our suppliers to do the same.

The policy is implemented through the Holcim Collaborative Business Relationship Management System and each collaborative relationship with its own Joint Relationship Management Plan (JRMP).

We are aware of our social responsibilities in trading with organisations around the world. In this light we support the ETI Base Code.

Our large and varied landholding across the country enables us to make a positive contribution to UK biodiversity through ongoing site management and wildlife focused restoration schemes.

With our products found in houses, buildings, roads, railways, ports, power stations and much more we take our responsibility seriously, to make a positive contribution to the built environment now and for future generations.

We recognise the importance of our commitment to mitigate and manage our impact by ensuring our environmental performance continually improves by implementing an effective, certified Environmental Management System.

Holcim recognises the importance of our commitment to mitigate and manage our impact on climate change. To this end, we aim to ensure that our energy efficiency and decarbonisation performance continually improves by implementing an effective, certified Energy Management System (EnMS) appropriate to our activities.

We are committed to being a responsible partner, effectively contributing to improving the quality of life of the members of our workforce, their families and the communities around our operations.

The Occupational Pension Scheme (Scheme Administration) Regulations 1996 require the Trustee to prepare an annual statement regarding governance, which should be included in the Annual Report. This statement issued by the Scheme covers the period from 16 May 2020 to 15 May 2021 and is signed on behalf of the Trustee by the Chair.

We are committed to ensuring that all information owned by or shared with Holcim is appropriately managed and protected. Information Security is an important part of the safeguards in place to protect data and systems, which could have a detrimental impact on operating our business and delivering quality materials to our customers.
