With a score of 81.9%, Votorantim Cimentos' 2016 Integrated Report was voted the best in the world by the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). In recent years, scores ranged from 75% in 2015 to 55.6% in 2014.
In 2016, the report brought several new features such as the Votorantim Cimentos Board Charter, the Sustainable Development Objectives, the external evaluation of sustainability experts and integrated reports and the official launch of the "Life is made to last" purpose. In addition, changes in the layout facilitated the organization of information and access to reading.
"With this result, our responsibility increases even more, so I would like to count on each one of you to continue to evolve our governance and transparency in the area of sustainability." We had already received several compliments from our 2016 report, but " "The WBCSD really confirms an important evolution in governance, results and best practices," says Alvaro Lorenz, Global Technical Director.
This result only proves how committed the company is to transparency and to increasingly strengthen our relationships with all our stakeholders.
