We recognize that all resources have a life cycle. The goal is to minimize the amount of waste generated, and rather retain the resource for as long as possible throughout its life cycle. By optimising resource recycling and energy recovery, we also ensure that our customers reduce their environmental footprint.
The 17 goals address the global challenges we face, relating to poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice, among others. SAR supports the United Nations Sustainability Goals, with an emphasis on these six areas:
We aim to ensure that waste management is carried out safely throughout the entire value chain — from the waste produced by the customer until it is handled by us in SAR and disposed of.
We will not cause work-related illness or injury, and we will work together to create positive and healthy attitudes and activities, both internally and with our partners.
We facilitate lifelong learning. Therefore, we must ensure the right skills for our various businesses and give our employees the opportunity for growth and development.
We must actively offer sound advice to our customers and partners, and we must provide the training needed to ensure sustainable solutions throughout the value chain.
We will ensure good opportunities for all our employees. We will work together for gender equality, and establish a positive and sustainable working environment that safeguards workers' rights in a good way.
We will promote SAR = Safety Accountability Respect, and we will ensure sustainable economic growth in order to go even further in an environmentally friendly direction
We strive to be innovative and develop a solid infrastructure together with our customers, suppliers and other partners. WCM (Waste Chain Management) should be our distinctive feature.
This includes a sustainable value stream, logistics and digitalization. We will develop new business models to ensure a sustainable transition to a circular economy.
We will have a strong focus on cooperation to achieve our goals. We need to be the drivers in various forums and work with our customers and suppliers, governments, the industry and the local community in our search for good, sustainable solutions.
At SAR, we believe that challenges can only be solved through collaboration throughout the supply chain. We will work to ensure that contracts do not compromise sustainability.
