  • Encouraging innovation and transformation and promote environmental performance improvement
  • Establishment and promotion of sustainability targets, including:
    • Reduced carbon intensity
    • Increased offsite construction
    • Mandating of sub-contractors by main contractor to reduce steel wastage by 5%, specified in the sub-contractor contract
    • Waste metal recycling target of 30% for BEAM Plus credit
  • Promotion of commitment activities/schemes, e.g.
    • Projects exceeding minimum compliance standard in environmental protection
    • Activities which engage with interested parties about site issues
    • Monthly site planning meeting with sub-contractor
    • ISO 14064 Greenhouse Gas Emission Audit for projects
    • Monthly promotion of environmental practices
    • Mini-audits, including environmental requirements compliance, audited by independent environmental checkers
    • Environmental promotion by clients to contractors, e.g. promote reuse of lunch utensils/bio-degradable utensils/metal utensils
    • Carbon and water footprint measurement with early contractor involvement, as requested by Listing Company ESG disclosure
    • Monthly meetings with community liaison group to handle environmental concerns
    • Applications for Green Building schemes, such as BEAM Plus, LEED, WELL
