Our Planet
Our sustainability targets are ambitious but achievable and validated by the Science Based Targets initiative. So that, whatever we do, we know we’re doing our best to minimise our impact on our planet.
Our values guide our actions and conduct across all aspects of our business, influencing not only our people but also our other stakeholders.
We are dedicated to passing on a strong and successful business to future generations by living our company values.
At HBK, we believe in business done fairly and ethically. We strongly advocate for human rights, encourage a fair and effective supply chain, and enforce multiple ethical frameworks – our Code of Business Ethics, and our supplier code of conduct – to ensure these goals are achieved throughout every level of our organisation.
Ensuring a sustainable business means safeguarding human rights and combating modern slavery, aligning with our ethical responsibility.
We strongly adhere to international laws, particularly those included in the International Bill of Human Rights, addressing both human rights and modern slavery concerns. Our dedication to preventing modern slavery, child labour, and human trafficking is present across our entire corporate spectrum.
By aligning with the principles of the International Labour Organization’s Declaration of Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, we also consistently ensure our suppliers actively identify and address potential violations within their operations and value chain.
These commitments go beyond our immediate workforce, also applying to our partners’ employees and direct or indirect suppliers to champion human rights and oppose modern slavery in all forms.
Our sustainability targets are ambitious but achievable and validated by the Science Based Targets initiative. So that, whatever we do, we know we’re doing our best to minimise our impact on our planet.
Our sustainability starts with our suppliers, and the network of sub-suppliers that they rely on. We use the Ecovadis rating platform to assess, monitor and help develop this network.
Sustainability means more than limiting emissions. Whether we’re reducing carbon or nurturing the next generation of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) innovators through the Spectris Foundation, we’re always investing in the future.
As we embark on expanding our inclusion efforts, we draw strength from our proud legacy and rich heritage. We believe that this is an integral part of our daily work.
