Corporate
Emaar’s purpose is to create and sustain exceptional places to live, work and visit, with a commitment to sustainability at the forefront. Our ESG initiatives are designed to enhance community well-being, safeguard the environment, and create long-term value for all stakeholders.
01. Structure
As part of our ESG strategy framework, high priority material topics are categorized in accordance with the three fundamental pillars: safeguarding the environment, maximizing social value, and ensuring strong governance and business ethics. These pillars shape our practices, ensuring an approach aligned with UAE sustainability and global practices.
Pillar 01
Climate change mitigation · Resource management
Pillar 03
Ethics and transparency · Anti-corruption and bribery · Data privacy · Legal compliance
02. The framework
Our Group ESG Strategy Framework outlines key material topics, aligning with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. The strategy focuses on three pillars: safeguarding the environment, maximising social value and ensuring strong governance and business ethics. Key focus areas include climate change mitigation, resource management, health, safety and well-being, ethics and transparency, anti-corruption and bribery, data privacy, legal compliance and human rights.
With customer satisfaction as the end-goal, we are implementing several environmental initiatives such as optimising energy efficiency and obtaining green building certifications. Additionally, our Standards of Conduct policy protects employee rights, promotes workplace inclusivity, and addresses discrimination or harassment.
03. Governance
Our ESG Steering Committee, comprising the Executive Management team, reports directly to the Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Group ESG Steering Committee is responsible for overseeing the ESG strategy, managing ESG-related risks and opportunities, and ensuring effective assessment. The Committee also sets annual ESG key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure progress as part of employee performance management.
