- Ensuring safe and satisfying working conditions.
- Building relationships and developing an organisational culture that incorporates the idea of sustainable development.
- Raising consciousness about universal human rights among stakeholders.
- Ethics in action.
Each goal has been assigned with commitments, ambitions, and measurable indicators. The interested parties can familiarise themselves with the full content of the document on the unibep.pl website under the tab labelled ESG — "The ESG Strategy of the Unibep Group. Perspective 2023-2025".
