Fighting climate change

Climate change is a key pillar of our corporate sustainability strategy. As a large company with worldwide activities, we want to lead by example when working with our suppliers, partners, customers and communities to reduce our impact on the environment. In 2023, Colt Group received approval from the SBTI for our updated near-term science-based target (SBT). These targets are now set on a baseline that includes Well-To-Tank (WTT) emissions for relevant Scope 3 categories and splits the emissions by two different entities: Colt and Colt DCS. We also submitted a long-term net-zero target for 2045, aligned to the new SBTi net-zero standard.

Colt Group's main initiatives to achieve our net-zero target include committing to procure renewable power and achieve 100% Scope 2 renewable electricity for all sites globally by 2030. We will reduce indirect emissions by finding alternatives to travel and encourage colleagues to choose better travel options for the environment. We are also decarbonising our in-house fleet through electrification and investing in green innovations such as Carbon Capture and Storage, as well as focusing on circularity initiatives to reduce waste within our network. We run a dedicated supplier programme covering a wide ESG agenda with a special focus on our top suppliers in terms of emissions. To achieve our Scope 3 target, we have committed to engage with 93% of our suppliers by emissions (covering purchased goods and services and capital goods) to set Scope 1 and 2 science-based targets approved by Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi) by 2025.

Colt Group's current targets do not include the Lumen EMEA assets acquired in 2023: The acquisition has been finalised and we are in the process of integrating teams and their data. The integration of data and subsequent resubmission of Science Based Targets is planned in 2024/25.

Covid-19 recovery

Colt was very proactive in supporting customers during the Covid-19 epidemic and has continued to support customers and employees during the subsequent recovery phase.

Tackling economic inequality

Colt’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) strategy is to build an innovative, great and inclusive place to work. We have four DEI pillars:

• Governance & Impact - Ensure we have the governance in place to deliver on our inclusion goals and we collaborate for wider impact that we develop our leaders as inclusive role models.
• Leadership & culture – develop our leaders as inclusive role models and drive an inclusive culture where we can harness diversity of thought for greater success.
• Diverse Representation - Improve the diversity of our workplace, ensuring we represent the communities that we serve.
• Equitable Business Practices - Employ equitable business practices that improve the employee experience and affect positive change in the wider world.

Our Global Diversity, Equity & Inclusion policy makes our approach clear and explains our governance structures and our commitment to equal opportunities. It also outlines our zero tolerance approach to discrimination, bullying and harassment. One of the ways we ensure equal opportunities is by building inclusion into our people processes from the beginning. We have worked to make our recruitment process more inclusive by introducing a tool to reduce bias in language used in job adverts. We’ve also introduced training for hiring managers and checklists to be used to mitigate bias when hiring. We also raise awareness of bias during other people process such as performance management and make clear how managers need to be aware and mitigate for bias by inviting diverse thoughts and positive challenge from their peers.
In addition, we have a five year strategy to improve accessibility within the company – both physical and digital accessibility. This also covers how we communicate and our employee and customer journeys. This is available publicly on our website

Working in tandem with our Business Continuity team, we are committed to maintaining operational resilience and ensuring continuity of support even in challenging circumstances. Guided by a global wellbeing policy, our organisation fosters a culture of support and inclusivity, with resources, information, and educational materials available through our Wellbeing Academy and intranet page. We empower employee networks and global employee ambassadors to lead wellbeing-related events, sessions, and initiatives, fostering a culture of support and inclusivity within Colt. Furthermore, our CSR team is committed to giving back to the communities we operate in, ensuring that our impact extends beyond the workplace. Together, these initiatives demonstrate our commitment to creating a healthy, supportive, and socially responsible environment for all our employees.
