THE UNITE GROUP PLC Sustainability Report 2024 MAKING A POSITIVE IMPACT Our strategic business objectives to create a Great Place to Live, Work and Invest, can only be achieved if we maintain focus on sustainability. Our approach to sustainability This graphic shows why sustainability is central to achieving our three strategic objectives. GOVERNANCE APPROACH PROGRESS SOCIAL IMPACT LOOKING FORWARD APPENDICES Great Place to Work Providing our residents with a great place to live takes teams who are engaged, enabled, empowered and rewarded to deliver consistently high standards of performance. This means listening to employee voice, investing in life-long learning, recognising and incentivising performance, and working towards a more diverse and representative workforce at all levels. Great Place to Invest To continue to provide the best possible place to live and work, requires access to investment and finance. This will only be possible if we continue a credible transition to net zero carbon, robustly manage climate-related risks, maintain the highest standards of safety and compliance, and provide transparent reporting and disclosure on environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. Creating places that our customers can call home while they stay with us, through enhancements to our buildings and access to welfare support.
