With our size and global reach, Mott MacDonald’s presence and activities can have significant local impact. We want to make that impact positive.As part of the Mott MacDonald Group we are committed to acting ethically and responsibly, promoting the sustainability of our environment and supporting local and global communities.

Since 2007 we have been reporting annually on our performance, helping us evaluate strengths and identify areas for improvement.

Our latest Corporate Responsibility Report sets out how we seek to care for our customers, our staff, the communities among which we work and our local and global environments in order to sustain a robust and healthy business.

Among the headlines detailed in our report:

• We improved our customer satisfaction rating, up to 83%
• Our projects and people won 75 awards in 2009 – recognition of our professional excellence
• An independent poll of over 2,000 staff saw us reach eigth place in the UK Sunday Times’ Best Big Companies to Work For league table – the third consecutive year that we’ve made it into the top 10
• Our overall accident rate fell by 10% and our reporting of near misses rose 30%, reflecting improved awareness
• Increased scope and accuracy in our carbon measurement showed a 3% fall in emissions per employee in 2008, even with our campaign only getting under way mid-year
• Our Community Support Programme now covers three projects as part of our expanding engagement with charitable, development, relief and community organisations

We endeavour to use our size and diversity to make a difference not only through our behaviour – driven by the values and principles we strive to live by and the processes we have in place to help – but also through our projects. So we continue to dedicate resources and talent to advancing understanding and best practice to achieve the most integrated, sustainable and effective solutions.
