ESG

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL & GOVERNANCE

Investors rely on ESG metrics to assess financial risks, demanding strategies to tackle climate change while recognizing that inclusive, positive workplaces drive better performance.

BuildIT, in collaboration with Expansive Insights, has created an ESG program that uses industry standards, best practices and regulations to help companies formalize, facilitate and document ESG goals and implement strategies to build and sustain your ESG Program.
 
Each company’s journey to becoming environmentally sustainable and socially responsible will be unique, but it’s more critical than ever to start now and get it right.

 

We invite you to learn more about this program and how our Global Brand BuildIT can add value to your organization, business and initiative!
