For many years now, the ‘business of conducting business’ has been underpinned by a tri-dimensional approach. Global business has emerged from its historical concept of ‘enterprise - customer - profit’ to one which recognises the impact businesses have on the environment, on society and on bottom lines. It became clear that enterprise without regard for all three factors together, was untenable in the long term; was unsustainable in the long term.
Whilst these parameters define today, what responsible business is all about, it is gratifying to note that SLT, throughout its long history, and particularly during the past decade, has had sustainable business practice at the very core of its enterprise.
We hold very firmly to the premise that we have an obligation to all stakeholders to present fairly and most transparently, an account of how sustainability in our business domain is cherished and manifested across economic, social and environmental dimensions. |
