Commitment

Our commitment

Sustainability at the centre of our business

Webuild Costruiamo un futuro sostenibile

As a Group we commit, every day, to building infrastructure which improves people’s life quality, drive the territorial development, respecting the heritage and natural resources, human dignity and freedom, while contributing to the economic and social wellbeing of the communities in which we operate, by creating new jobs, training and development.

Our daily activity is based on the highest ethical and integrity principles. We also confirmed our commitment to sustainable development by subscribing to the United Nations Global Compact, the largest global sustainability initiative for companies committed to aligning their strategies and operations with ten universally-recognised principles on human rights, labour practices, the environment and anti-corruption.

Results achieved and future objectives

The greatest challenge we face every day is to create shared value for all our stakeholders, by encouraging the pursuit of excellence for our customers, the satisfaction of our investors, care for the communities in which we live and work, the development and integrity of our staff and the protection of the environment.

Il nostro agire responsabilmente - RISULTATI RAGGIUNTI NEL 2022

Promoting health and safety

Our commitment goes beyond merely applying the correct health and safety measures. We take a responsible, wider approach of prevention and protection to our workers' professional and personal life.

Health and Safety

Creating shared value

The direct link between investments in infrastructure and the generation of internal demand is widely recognised as a leverage for economic growth.

Shared value

Promoting the circular economy

Infrastructural projects use huge quantities of resources. As a result they become a large laboratory in which to apply the principle of green and circular economy.

The circular economy

Valorising diversity

Our Group consists of over 100 nationalities. Recognizing and valuing diversity is part of our DNA and an essential element for our organisation's growth.

Diversity & Inclusion at Webuild

Building a dialogue with our stakeholders

We pay close attention to our stakeholders' legitimate expectations and needs: this is why we encourage them to take part and become involved.
