Transparency

Vopak aims to be unequivocal and transparent towards its stakeholders concerning the sustainability policy it pursues, its subsequent results and Vopak’s own aspirations. To provide further insight into its performance in the area of sustainable entrepreneurship, Vopak records and reports in line with the internationally recognized guidelines issued by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). These guidelines were prepared to promote globally uniform, measurable reports in the financial, economic, social and environmental areas.

Indicators

Our interpretation of people, planet and profit, and our acknowledgement of their interdependence are being measured on 15 selected GRI Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that we report on. They express the performance in areas relevant to Vopak, and for which reliable information is internally available. The KPIs address economic, environmental and social performance areas. In the longer term, we aspire to increase the number of GRI KPIs. We are convinced that, in the end, applying the principles of sustainable entrepreneurship will result in high-quality services without any undesirable social and environmental impact.

Vopak publishes a separate sustainability report that further explains the results achieved in the area of sustainability every year. For the first time, our 2010 Sustainability Report has been subject to and given assurance by an external accountant.
