ESG Rating
We are periodically subject to assessment by investors, by the main agencies specialized in ESG ratings (Environmental, Social, Governance), evaluation and certification bodies, customers and other stakeholders.
Ratings are attributed at the end of an ESG policy and performance analysis and assessment process. They constitute a valid tool for the Group's stakeholders, offering summary, independent and comparable information on our performance and the level achieved by Webuild in non-financial areas, related to governance, ethics and integrity, to social and environmental issues.
Webuild is a benchmark of excellence on the Italian scene in the construction sector. Constantly improving ESG ratings place the Group among the main players in the sector at an international level.
Below are the main ESG ratings received by the Group.
CDP
In 2023 Webuild confirmed "A-"Rating, obtained in 2022, in the annual CDP (formerly the Carbon Disclosure Project) ranking, placing in the "leadership" range, above the European and sector average (equal to "B").
Webuild has been included in the CDP ranking since 2014, providing disclosure on the global platform that measures the environmental performance of more than 21,000 companies worldwide. The Climate Change program is based on a survey requested every year by more than 740 investors representing assets worth 136 trillion dollars.
A result that confirms the effectiveness of Webuild’s sustainability strategy and confirms the Group’s leadership in mitigating climate change risks.
MSCI - Morgan Stanley Capital International
In 2023, Webuild obtained the AA rating from the MSCI ESG Ratings assessment, positioning itself among the leading sustainability companies, consolidating a positive trend that began in 2018, when the Group had obtained the "BB" rating.
Driving the 2023 rating upgrade, which consolidates a positive trend that started in 2018, were essentially the Group's performance in Health & Safety, governance and the Group's big focus on opportunities related to the use of clean technologies, with an increased commitment to the clean water and green buildings sectors.
Also praised the Group's commitment to ensure better health and safety conditions, highlighting the significant reduction in the Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR). In 2022, this was 41% lower than the 2017 baseline, exceeding the target set for the year.
