To drive purposeful action on its impacts and clearly demonstrate its sustainability ambition, in 2023 Tenova developed a tailored Sustainability Framework, initiating a participatory co-creation process by engaging leaders and key internal stakeholders alike to jointly define this framework and articulate a shared sustainability vision for the company.
The resulting framework is structured around three strategic pillars:
We Transform Business: Helping our clients and suppliers transform to operate within planetary boundaries.
We Build Trust: Empowering our employees and reinforcing mutual trust with all our stakeholders.
We Act Transparently: Being transparent within our organization and operating responsibly.
Transformation, Trust, and Transparency are the foundational concepts that guide these pillars. It is no coincidence that each begins with the letter “T”, a clear signal of our intention to embed sustainability at the very heart of Tenova Group’s identity. Presenting them through “we” statements makes our commitments more concrete, while adding a distinctively personal and collective Tenova touch.
The material topics identified through the 2024 impact materiality assessment at the Group level are naturally aligned with the three pillars, ensuring that the related significant impacts are addressed through a consistent and strategic approach.
Furthermore, each pillar has been mapped in relation to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), placing Tenova Group’s strategy within a broader global framework for sustainable development.
