Our Sustainability Approach
The sustainability management approach encompasses managing governance, environmental, and social impacts and processes to achieve sustainability goals.
Kaplanlar considers sustainability management as a strategic framework for long-term success. In this regard, the company adopts a sustainability management approach that includes steps such as identifying the context, communicating and engaging with stakeholders, managing sustainability performance, evaluating risks and opportunities, establishing mechanisms for monitoring goals and objectives, identifying improvement activities, and ensuring communication and reporting.
The company meticulously outlines processes that play a crucial role in achieving sustainability goals through detailed studies. It has developed a sustainability modeling that corresponds to the content of the Management, Planet, and People/Society categories, in alignment with “Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics.” Thus, the company aims to achieve a performance that is in harmony with the 2030 global agenda, providing access to sustainable finance.
For Kaplanlar, sustainability is not just about having a strong R&D capability and providing high-quality products and services; but also creating an environment that can support these efforts, analyzing environmental and social impacts in all activities, conducting rational risk analyses in light of global developments, and managing all processes with clear goals with qualified teams.
