ESG Rating in Bronze
ESG rating in bronze achieved
Kurtz Ersa is on track to achieve CO2 neutrality by 2029 and has taken numerous measures towards sustainability in recent years: The switch to green electricity has been made. The construction of photovoltaic systems is in full swing and the switch to a lower CO2 vehicle fleet is being consistently implemented.
ESG stands for Environment, Social and Governance and measures the voluntary contribution of companies to sustainable development that goes beyond legal requirements. In the first ESG rating, the Kurtz Ersa Group achieved a bronze medal at the first attempt. Kurtz Ersa received 48 out of 100 points in the overall evaluation of four topic areas. With 60 points, the rating in the “Environment” category was better than in the industry. This topic area evaluates, among other things, energy and water consumption, waste volume in the company, and associated guidelines and documentation. Kurtz Ersa is also above average in “Labor and human rights”. This category includes, for example, training offered, frequency and severity of accidents, and diversity in the workplace.
Kurtz Ersa sees itself as a pioneer in sustainable corporate management and would like to continue its commitment well beyond the legal framework in the future. The achieved rating is a pleasing result and proves that we have chosen the right sustainability strategy with the goal “CO2-free by 2029”!
