How We Work
We are committed to conducting all business activities responsibly, efficiently, transparently, and with integrity and respect for our stakeholders. This approach fosters a culture of performance, collaboration, and accountability.
In addition, to make a meaningful positive impact on the environments around us, we have established a structured ESG Governance Structure and operating model. This ensures that our sustainability commitments are thoughtfully developed, effectively executed, and seamlessly integrated into our operations.
ESG Governance
In order to ensure that sustainability commitments are meaningfully developed, executed, and integrated in our operations, Fertiglobe has defined an ESG Governance Structure and operating model.
Sustainability is embedded into all aspects of our organization, including our strategic objectives, risk management, capital allocation and financial planning, operational and commercial activities, and other medium- and long-term decision-making.
- The Board of Directors holds overall responsibility for Fertiglobe’s strategy, business objectives, and risk management, which encompasses sustainability.
- Sponsors have been designated for each ESG topic, sharing responsibility for shaping strategies, setting targets, and supporting accountability for topic-specific initiatives.
- To manage sustainability on a day-to-day basis, Fertiglobe’s leadership team is supported by the Sustainability Steering Committee (SteerCo), co-chaired by the CEO and COO.
- The SteerCo is advised by the Sustainability Team, which develops sustainability strategies and targets, and it coordinates ESG efforts across the organization.
- At the OpCo level, resources and responsibilities are aligned with relevant ESG topics and the effective execution of action plans.
- The CapEx Committee reviews and approves sustainability-related capital expenditures, balancing these investments with broader commitments and return thresholds.
- The Decarbonization Committee is responsible for co-defining and implementing Fertiglobe’s GHG reduction strategy and evaluating decarbonization and financial impacts.
- The Audit Committee and Executive Committee are regularly informed of key sustainability initiatives, policies, and targets.
