FirstGroup has been recognised for its environmental, social and governance leadership, having being named in the FTSE4Good Index Series by FTSE Russell for the 16th consecutive year.
The FTSE4Good index measures the performance of companies demonstrating strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices.
Transparent management and clearly-defined ESG criteria make FTSE4Good indexes suitable tools to be used by third parties when creating or assessing sustainable investment products.
Kate Broome, Group Director of Corporate Responsibility, said: “As one of the world’s leading transport operators, we have a responsibility to provide sustainable travel for our customers and the communities that we serve. Maintaining our position in the FTSE4Good index demonstrates our commitment to less carbon-intensive modes of public transport.”
