Sustainability
Our sustainability work is based on the UN Global Compact's 10 principles on human rights, labour rights, the environment and corruption, but also on the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, and we report annually in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative's (GRI) guidelines.
The Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the company's sustainability work. The CEO and management, in close cooperation with the company's Head of Sustainability, set strategic goals and plans. The operational work is driven and coordinated by a development group with a focus on sustainability but with a responsibility for operational implementation directly assigned to the various parts of the organization. All employees have a responsibility and are encouraged to actively contribute to sustainability work through their daily work.
Internal audits are carried out regularly and in such a way that all of Akademiska Hus' operations are audited at least every three years. Compliance with the law is checked every year. Akademiska Hus conducts activities that require a permit in accordance with the Environmental Assessment Ordinance. The permits are followed up continuously and outcomes are reported to authorities according to requirements.
For us, it is self-evident to work to ensure that sustainability permeates all our operations. Therefore, we have also chosen to integrate the sustainability report into the overall structure of our annual report.
EU Taxonomy
The Taxonomy Regulation – also known as the EU Taxonomy – is a classification system that establishes criteria for when an economic activity is considered environmentally sustainable. The assessment is made based on technical screening criteria and that the company needs to meet certain minimum social protection measures.
In the annual report, Akademiska Hus reports how sustainable our operations are according to the taxonomy, which we have done since 2022.
The report consists of KPIs linked to our financial outcome, which also take into account how well our buildings meet the taxonomy criteria. To ensure compliance with the requirements of the taxonomy, we use the energy performance of buildings, which contributes significantly to environmental objective 1 (Climate change mitigation) while at the same time conducting climate risk analyses for the entire stock (Climate change adaptation).
