Veolia is reaccredited with Silver level CORE accreditation as a responsible business

2nd CORE accreditation recognises the role Veolia plays in making Northern Ireland more sustainable

Veolia has been awarded the Business in the Community Northern Ireland Silver CORE accreditation as a responsible company for a further three years by demonstrating positive impacts across our people, the planet and the places where we operate, and advocating the benefits to encourage others to follow. 

CORE – the Standard for Responsible Business – is Northern Ireland’s only corporate responsibility accreditation. It has been designed to support businesses that are committed to integrating corporate responsibility into the way they do business. CORE is based on Business in the Community’s Corporate Responsibility (CR) framework.

Veolia's purpose means that being a responsible company is part of everything we do every day. We have identified 5 key stakeholder groups - shareholders, employees, customers, community / society and the planet itself - and we work to deliver for each of these groups equally. Achieving Silver CORE accreditation for the second time recognises this and reflects the work our teams do.
