Sustainability at BAE Systems Australia

Would like to hear more about how we are incorporating more from process and production element.

We have a sustainability working group in our sector.

I would love to know more about the companies sustainability efforts and requirements for Subcontractors and Shipyard, but I do not know enough to comment on this.

The company has a very big focus on sustainability which can be seen through the constant efforts of recycling in the office and within the projects and by also increasing efforts of going carbon neutral.

They have recycle bins in the office, but people use these still for non-recyclable coffee cups, which the company also provides in the kitchen for some reason rather than just providing additional mugs. I am not aware of any sustainability efforts in our office.

BAE is having a big sustainability push

As it's a manufacturing environment, it's hard to be 100% sustainable. When rooms are not in use, lights are turned off, there are a variety of bins for different waste (recyclable plastics, compost, general waste, paper, etc) and there are also waste water and facilities to prevent toxic chemicals from being dumped down a drain that leads to the oceans. Scrapped parts are reused to prevent wastage.

BAE systems are a business that operates responsibility and sustainability. Sustainability is fundamental to business performance and the delivery of our sustainability agenda is how we address our material Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) risks and opportunities.

Do not hear much about it so not too sure.
