John Keells Holdings has been reporting its sustainability practices on an annual basis as part of its Annual Report. The information in this report covers material aspects pertaining to the financial year 2007/08 and covers relevant information from the JKH Centre as well as all its subsidiaries in all industry groups that have been detailed in the Group Profile section of the annual report. Our most recent previous report was included in the annual report for the financial year 2006/07. Any queries or clarifications required on this report could be addressed to investor.relations@keells.com.
Information included in this report has been gathered through formal mechanisms and mainly cover issues of materiality whereby our industry groups have displayed their commitment to business, environmental and social goals. While a formal monthly reporting exists for all activities carried out by the John Keells Social Responsibility Foundation, the information and data channels from the industry groups require a more formalised system in order to enable us to report groupwide aggregate information on all of the GRIG3 core and additional indicators. We are presently in the process of putting in to place such formalised systems in accordance with strategic initiatives highlighted in the Note from the Chairman, and have structured this report to follow GRIG3 guidelines as closely as possible.
As mentioned earlier, we have made a concerted effort to reduce the printed bulk of our Annual Report in making it more functional and environmentally friendly, and have accordingly condensed our Sustainability Report in the printed version. The printed form of this report contains the note from the Chairman and key impacts of our industry groups. The full report, provided in the CD accompanying the printed report, which can also be accessed on the Investor Relations page of www.keells.com, includes details on selected projects that highlight our environmental, economic and social performance and policies on labour practices and human rights. |
