Safety data
Lost Time Injury (LTI) expresses the number of workplace accidents
serious enough to result in absence from work. Lost Time Injury
Frequency (LTIF) expresses the number of workplace accidents
resulting in absence from work per 200,000 hours worked. The
LTIF overview on
page 74shows a breakdown for the various
divisions. In addition to LTIF, we also provide the Total Recordable
Injury Rate (TRIR). TRIR is composed of LTIs, Medical Treatment
Cases and Restricted Work Cases, per 200,000 hours worked.
Community investment data
Material permanent operations outside the Netherlands are limited.
Most of our activities are project-based and therefore temporary in
nature. We provide qualitative reporting on the community activities for
these operations. In view of our permanent presence in the
Netherlands we provide quantitative reporting on the community
initiatives undertaken by our domestic operations. Our operations in
the Netherlands account for 56% of our workforce. Community
investment data includes the investments in community programs
made by Corporate Head Office and by Boskalis Nederland.
Supply chain data
The supply chain data refers to the procurement spend by the suppliers
of the Central Procurement department. 253 of these suppliers are
regarded as strategic suppliers who account for some 90% of the
Corporate Procurement department’s purchasing volume.
Benchmarks
In 2016 our sustainability performance was monitored and
benchmarked:
Boskalis was once again certified for the highest level of the
CO
2
Performance Ladder (level 5) in the Netherlands.
We finished 46th out of 485 companies surveyed for the
Transparency Benchmark of the Dutch Ministry of Economic
Affairs.
Once again we took part in the Carbon Disclosure Project, a
global reporting platform that makes information on emissions
available to subscribed investors.
