Our objectives
Our 12 ESG objectives set the framework for how we deliver positive environmental, social and governance impact. Together, they guide how we:
-
- Reduce our carbon footprint
- Champion renewable energy
- Create sustainable communities
- Support and develop our people
- Foster an inclusive and safe workplace
- Act with integrity
- Innovate through thought leadership and technology
- Maintain responsible financial and governance standards
These themes ensure we operate transparently, grow sustainably, and contribute meaningfully to the communities and environments we work in.
Environmental impact objectives
“Our overriding objective is to implement practices and report outcomes in a transparent way so we can accurately record and improve our impact on
the environment and society. This provides our commitment to launch the strategy, review it on a regular basis and provide updated monitoring
reports on a regular basis to the board so informed decisions can be made.”
“Our objective is to be Carbon Neutral by the end of our 2025/2026 Financial Year and strive for ongoing reductions in emissions thereafter with the aim of achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. We firstly commit to becoming carbon neutral by accurately recording our CO2 emissions and then contributing to offset these impacts. We will then achieve year on year improvements in the intensity of our CO2 emissions (Turnover £m / KG CO2e) and work towards the aim of net zero emissions by the end of this ESG Strategy.”
“Our objective is to increase revenue from renewable and low carbon energy services across the Company and promote the sector more generally through PR, education, and shared knowledge.”
“Our objective is to create sustainable communities and expand the scope of our sustainability consultancy expertise and capabilities that we can offer to our clients as an added value service towards achieving this goal.”
Social impact objectives
“Our objective is to be an exciting and understanding business to work for and become recognised as an Employer of Choice / Great Place to Work. Our leaders will endeavor to get to know all members of our staff, we will continue with our annual staff appraisals and continually look towards how we may be able to reward staff more for all their efforts, including exploration of alternative share ownership models.”
“Our objective is to keep all of our staff safe and well. We prioritise Health and Safety procedures within our workplace and the projects we work on. The wellbeing of our employees is also embedded in our culture. Indeed, we ensure our doors are open for all employees so there is always someone on hand to talk to.”
“Our objective is to create an equal, diverse and inclusive workplace that reflects the communities and regions where Pegasus Group is located.”
“Our objective is to create a positive impact on society and the communities within which we work by increasing the number of hours our staff dedicate to good causes and the charitable donations we are able to provide.”
Governance impact objectives
“Our objective is to ensure that all our staff fully understand what we mean when we say we will conduct our business with integrity, honesty and trust. Acting with integrity is already one of our five core values.”
“Our objective is to continually grow the business in a sustainable manner and apply ‘triple line’ reporting to all key business decisions so environmental and social considerations are considered alongside financial matters.”
“Our objective is to be respected leaders at the forefront of the professional bodies and sectors within which we operate and utilise technology so our staff are best equipped to deliver the best professional advice to our clients.”
“Our objective is to provide modern and exciting office environments for our staff that encourages collaboration whilst respecting our objectives associated with Net Zero and Financial Leadership and our desire to reduce our impact on natural resources.”
