Cermaq - best on sustainability reporting
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
For the second time Cermaq has been ranked as no 1 in Seafood Intelligence'
global survey on communication of sustainability.
Seafood intelligence has released a benchmark of the sustainability reporting of
the 36 largest salmon farming companies globally. The companies were ranked and
assessed against more than 200 indicators and principles. The main rating
dimensions were comprehensiveness, relevance and frequency of reporting. Cermaq,
including its farming division Mainstream, was no 1 in all the three dimensions
and was ranked as no 1 with a total score of 7.19 out of 10.
- Through transparent reporting we tell openly about our sustainability results
and invite our stakeholders to make up their own opinion. Transparent reporting
is the best basis for dialogue with stakeholders and continuous improvement. I
encourage everyone to look at our reporting and results at
www.report2011.cermaq.com, says CEO Jon Hindar
Cermaq's largest shareholder is the Norwegian Ministry of industry and trade.
The Norwegian government has clear expectations that companies with state
ownership should be leading in social responsibility within their industries and
in their areas
- It is very good news that Cermaq for the second year has been rated as no 1of
the world's leading farming and feed producers in the benchmark report about
communication of the company's social responsibility. It is my hope that
Cermaq's sustainability report can be an inspiration for others, says Minister
of Industry and Trade Mr. Trond Giske.
Cermaq's integrated annual and sustainability report is based on the Global
Reporting Initiative (GRI), and expanded with customized indicators for aspects
where GRI does not have indicators for fish farming and fish feed production,
such as medicine use, sea lice, marine index etc. The report is reviewed by
Cermaq's auditors based on ISEA 3000 as a GRI B+ report.
- Comprehensive reporting requires systematic work and contribution from all
parts of our operations. All employees can be proud of this recognition,
underlines Jon Hindar.
