Our Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) Policy
At Bluepoint Construction, we use the term ‘ESG’ to describe a comprehensive set of environmental, social, and governance matters that impact our company. We put these concerns at the core of our operations. As part of Meraki Resources, we look holistically at our impact on our communities and environment and support from a corporate and business division viewpoint.
We follow a definition of ESG developed by the UN Sustainability Development Goals (UN SDG), which defines ESG across 17 goals linked to E, S and G, respectively. In addition, we align with our local municipalities, which use the UN SDG framework, and WorkSafe BC, which define regional safety requirements for the Construction industry.
- Environment: We consider the environmental impact directly caused by the company, e.g. through operations and indirectly caused, e.g. energy, electricity, waste to impact caused by upstream and downstream activities, e.g. business travel and transportation, targeting both measuring but most importantly reducing the impact across all scopes. Focus areas: Climate Action and Innovation, Carbon Emissions, Greenhouse Gases
- Social: We are committed to developing a safety culture in our organization, which is supported by our parent company, Meraki Resources, and other related operating companies through a dedicated investment in training, tools, measurement framework and education for our teams and subcontractors. We are also dedicated to being good corporate citizens and prioritizing corporate social responsibility for the local benefit of our community. Focus areas: Health, Safety, and Environment Policy & Corporate Social Responsibility; Local Benefit
- Governance – As our company evolves, we aim to increase industry awareness and transparency and drive our business to improve practices. This includes our operating company, Bluepoint Construction, and extends from our parent company, Meraki Resources.
Our Safety Culture
Bluepoint has a comprehensive safety program to ensure the highest safety compliance to protect our workers. We keep our safe work procedures up to date with the current Occupational Health and safety regulations regarding asbestos, silica, confined spaces, traffic control, and other high-risk construction activities.
We have recently enrolled in the BC Construction Safety Alliance’s (BCCSA) Certificate of Recognition (COR) Program. This enhances our company's commitment to protecting the well-being of our employees and maintaining a positive culture toward safety.
We collaborate with WorkSafe BC, Fortis BC, BC Hydro, Municipalities, and private developers to share best practices and work to improve our safety program continually.
