Sustainability has always been important to JBA. We are very much aware of the impact of climate change by the very nature of the work in which we are involved. As a business, we’re determined to do everything we can to minimise the environmental impacts of our operations and activities and we’re committed to making the changes needed to reduce our resource use and cut our carbon footprint.
Our Sustainability and Environmental Management Policy sets out our objectives for environmental sustainability and our Carbon & Resource Management Plan details how we will achieve these objectives.
Guided by our plan, we aim to make positive changes across our business with the ultimate aim of becoming a Net Zero business, spearheaded by our Group Sustainability Manager, David Revill.
Given the nature of our work and that of our clients, climate change is at the forefront of our minds and we’re acutely aware of the threats we face both locally and as a global society. We’re in a climate emergency and JBA is determined to do what it can to minimise its climate impacts, whilst looking for ways to contribute to positive social and environmental outcomes.
