Outotec's sustainability report awarded Readers' Choice in both Investor and
Student categories
Outotec received for the second consecutive year Readers' Choice award in the
competition evaluating the corporate responsibility reporting of the Finnish
companies. This year Outotec's report was awarded both by Investors and
Students. Outotec's report made it to the top 10 in the overall competition,
too. Economic responsibility and its reported key figures were further
emphasized in this year's assessment criteria. The winner was Kesko Oyj.
This year jury appraised that Outotec's report is consistent and concise. "The
investors appreciate consistent structure, good tables, and conciseness.
Corporate responsibility and its linkage to Outotec's operations are described
with ambition, yet in a very concrete way. The best part of the report is,
however, the clear and comprehensive description of the company's targets in
various areas of sustainability and time spans", said Antti Savilaakso, Director
of Responsible Investment & Governance at Nordea.
"Outotec's report is easy to read, concise and at the same time informative. It
includes a vision of corporate responsibility as the core of the business, and
it clearly describes the governance and responsibilities related to
sustainability. The report conveys the company's commitment to wide corporate
responsibility, yet focusing on the most material topics", reasoned a team of
students from five universities.
"I am really pleased that our report has been considered as useful and
interesting reading by these two demanding audiences. We want to make our report
relevant for all our key stakeholders," states Outotec's SVP, Communications and
Corporate Responsibility Minna Aila.
The jury had representatives from six organizing parties: Aalto University
School of Economics, The Finnish Institute of Authorized Public Accountants, The
Ministry of Employment and the Economy, the Ministry of the Environment, The
Association for Environmental Management (YJY) and The Confederation of Finnish
Industries, Finnish Business & Society.
The competition evaluated 140 corporate responsibility reports, including all
Nasdaq OMX Helsinki listed companies. The winner was selected among 10 companies
who received the highest scores in the evaluation. The competition aims to
examine the present state of corporate responsibility reporting and its trends.
