Stakeholder engagement
Our most important stakeholders are customers, owners and investors, employees and municipalities. It is for this reason that we have an ongoing dialogue with our stakeholders — in part to ensure we create locations where people want to be and in part to understand what is expected of us.
Our focus is always on customers. Cooperation is to be close, long term, stable and personable. We have local organisations in place, and our business decision-making processes are short. Through collaboration we find innovative solutions, and together we create long-term sustainable and attractive environments.
Materiality analysis and key issues
To ensure that both we and our customers feel like we are working towards the right goals, we have conducted a materiality analysis based on the results of our ongoing stakeholder dialogues. Based on our strategy, impact on the outside world and our stakeholders’ expectations, we have identified six key issues that have resulted in four focus areas for corporate sustainability.
Six areas can be categorised as key issues for Atrium Ljungberg and our sustainability work: sustainable urban development, environment and resource efficiency, purchasing and suppliers, anti-corruption, employees, and corporate communication.
Area | Result |
Sustainable urban development |
We have clarified and developed our definition of and strategy for sustainable urban development. We actively work to integrate the strategy in our operations, from the early project stages to management. |
The environment and resource efficiency |
We focus on resource efficiency, and have reduced our energy consumption. We have set a goal to reduce our energy consumption per square metre by 30 per cent between 2014 and 2021. |
Purchasing and suppliers |
We have introduced a purchasing function and systematised our purchasing processes. We require our suppliers to adhere to our purchasing policy. |
Anti-corruption |
We work preventively and have a business ethics policy in place. We have also introduced a whistleblower function. |
Employees |
We have a zero-tolerance approach to stress-related illnesses and workplace accidents. We have also been named as one of Sweden’s best workplaces on several occasions. |
Corporate communication |
We have a goal to obtain environmental certification for all of our properties. We also have a goal for 50 per cent of our contracted annual rent to have a green lease contract by 2021. |
