Advancing our ESG Journey

CCV achieves EcoVadis Gold status in 2024

Building on our 2023 Ecovadis gold status, we are committed to continuous improvement as we progress towards our sustainability goals. Our approach is systematic, focusing on steady advancement across all areas of our operations and with increasing grit, throughout the value chain. In 2024, we have concentrated our efforts on key areas to further our ESG initiatives: 

CSRD Preparation

We have established a dedicated CSRD Steering Committee, including members from CSR, finance, legal, and GRC, to guide us as we prepare for CSRD reporting over 2025. Our double materiality process has been instrumental in updating our material topics to reflect both impact and financial relevance. 

Supply chain assessment 

We conducted a supply chain assessment with our strategic suppliers, and embedded a process of signing our Business Partner Code of Conduct in our onboarding of new and current suppliers.  

Policy Framework Enhancements

We have updated critical policies, including those on privacy, Customer Due Diligence, and our Code of Conduct, to ensure they align with the latest standards and regulations. 

Training and Awareness

We’ve centralized and mandated training in Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT), ensuring that all employees are equipped with the knowledge to uphold our standards. 

Strengthening ESG Governance

Regular CSR Steering Committee meetings and enhanced internal processes have fortified our ESG governance framework, ensuring robust oversight and accountability. 

Performance Review Program Updates

Our “Empower You” performance review program has been refined to better support our employees’ growth and development. 

Whistleblower and Misconduct Procedure 

We’ve reinforced our whistleblower and misconduct procedures to ensure a safe and transparent environment for all.  [link to procedure]. 

Each of these initiatives represents a crucial step in our ongoing ESG journey, as we work towards a more sustainable and responsible future.
