ENVIRONMENT
PROTECTING OUR ENVIRONMENT

We contribute to environmental sustainability in many ways through our range of services. Our own business activities also impact on the environment, so one of our priorities is to continuously improve our own environmental performance. Our environmental policy encourages us to minimize our impact on the environment and the communities where we work and live. It also requires our suppliers and business partners to make similar efforts. Learn more about SGS and Environmental Sustainability.
COMMUNITY
MAKING A DIFFERENCE TOGETHER

Our relationship with our communities and the role we play has a profound effect on our company. While we provide support, we also rely on people within these communities to choose us as a potential employer. We have a mutual responsibility with our customers to work with communities to minimize both social and environmental impacts and develop technical skills that will help sustain them.
