With our management’s commitment in supporting the Government in promoting its social and national development agenda, VELESTO’s initiatives are reflected in our policies and strategies, our conduct with employees, clients and other stakeholders.
In FY2020, VELESTO developed its Sustainability Blueprint, a holistic strategic plan that provides us with a comprehensive framework to guide and align our overall sustainability approach.
The Blueprint enables us to adopt a comprehensive and integrated approach that places sustainability at the heart of the organisation. Focus areas have been identified under the Blueprint with clear goals and targets set as well as action plans drawn up and implemented.
