ESG: Sustainability

Sustainability at Saba:
ESG criteria

The Saba group maintains the performance of its activity within the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), reiterating its commitment to the territory and focused on compliance with ESG criteria, aware of the need to act on the effects that the activity of companies has on the environment, directly or indirectly, the impact on its social environment, the community, and all those codes of conduct or transparency policies in public information which, for the most part, encompass the company's corporate governance.

The Saba Group has established a series of priorities to advance in the creation of economic, social and environmental value and ensure that the needs of its stakeholders are satisfied, while the business develops and generates value.

In this sense, the roadmap that marks Saba's sustainability strategy is aligned with the GRI Standards. Saba's priorities are creating value for society and the environment. For this reason, the entire organisation works to maintain a solid sustainability strategy and properly manage the most important aspects economic, environmental and social aspects.

The way of working that defines the Group is that of a shared commitment project, translated into customer service, involvement and responsibility with the territories in which it operates, being an active player in the progress of cities. All this, together with the brand identity and social and ethical aspects, comprise Saba's differentiating elements.

During FY2022, Saba reiterated its support for projects such as the United Nations Global Compact (UN Global Compact), born more than 20 years ago and which has more than 15,400 signatory entities in 164 countries around the world. This is the largest corporate sustainability initiative in the world, and has the mandate of the United Nations to catalyse the efforts of the private sector to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and drive the implementation of the Ten Principles, on human rights, labour standards, the environment and the fight against corruption, by the business community and organisations.

This Compact has in fact led to the Agenda 2030, which outlines the aims of the international community for 2016-2030 to eradicate poverty and promote sustainable and equitable development. Saba carries out its activity within the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and makes these principles part of the strategy, culture and daily business activities, as well as getting involved in cooperative projects that contribute to the broader objectives of development. Social innovation and development are part of Saba's DNA, so meeting these objectives is the best way to ensure the Group's commitment and performance as a socially responsible player.

Saba's activity is carried out bearing in mind especially the objectives that concern climate action, in line with actions to combat climate change and its effects; sustainable cities and communities, with the development of solutions in the field of urban mobility; and infrastructure innovation, improvement and technology.

Similarly, for a comprehensive vision of the future and to continue to strengthen corporate responsibility, the rest of the goals need to be taken into account. The health and well-being of employees, customers and collaborators, reinforcing the prevention of occupational risks and the installation of resources in the car parks such as defibrillators; contributing to the most disadvantaged groups is Saba's commitment to ending poverty. On the other hand, the guidelines for an Equality Plan to achieve gender parity; compliance with the Code of Ethics as a benchmark for behaviour in the company; becoming involved with society by offering decent work through the increase in permanent contracts; and benchmark alliances in order to achieve the proposed objectives, such as joining the Spanish Compliance Association (ASCOM), among other commitments.
