Performance and reporting
Our sustainability model is a collaborative one, relying on the creativity, engagement and dedication of our employees, suppliers, customers and other stakeholders.
We follow accepted international protocols in our reporting which allows comparability among companies. External benchmarking confirms our sustainability leadership role as shown through our inclusion in numerous sustainability indices.
Sustainability issues are very visible at the top level of Danisco’s management, as the Executive Committee (EC) is responsible for the ownership of Danisco’s sustainability strategies and targets.
This group, made up of the CEO, CFO and senior leaders for human resources and sales and the divisions, allocates resources and manages economic, environmental and human resource decisions. This provides a direct vehicle for holding the divisions accountable for implementing sustainability targets.
We were honoured that our 2009/10 sustainability report won the top award from the Institute of State Authorised Public Accountants in Denmark and the Danish Commerce and Companies Agency. This recognition of our hard work to embed sustainability throughout our organisation and to communicate with our stakeholders was very gratifying.
