The ESG’s force companies to not just think about profit, but also consider the impact they have on the planet. As our world changes rapidly in many ways, the ESG’s are a guiding tool to deal with these changes in an effective manner. This framework helps companies work towards a more sustainable future for their company. In the European Union, it’s mandatory for publicly traded companies to release a yearly sustainability report. The ESG pillars are the framework for these reports.

People don’t want to work for any organisation or buy from just any company anymore. They do their research: what’s this company’s purpose? How do they handle social issues? What part do they play in environmental changes? As stakeholders have become more conscious of the importance of taking action, implementing ESG in your strategy and sharing data about your initiatives gives you an advantage. Consumers are more and more willing to pay a little extra for environmentally friendly products and employees who work for an ESG minded company feel more purpose when doing their job.

Sharing your ESG initiatives will strengthen the relationship with your stakeholders. You’ll get the customers and the best talents to join your mission. ESG initiatives also attract partners or investors. They know that sustainable entrepreneurship is the only way to go in the near future, so they’ll be happy to do business with a company who works with the ESG framework.

We use the ESG’s as a framework to make Pegasus Park better each day. We have taken multiple steps towards a more sustainable place to work. Reducing water consumption, minimising waste and creating a more biodiverse environment are some examples of our actions. By organising events and group sports, we bring people together. Our many services — restaurants, laundry service,… — exist to make our tenants’ lives easier. We want people to feel safe and relaxed when they work at Pegasus Park. In the coming years, we’ll continue to work on our ESG efforts.
