HeidelbergCement's position in FTSE4Good Index confirmed
Also in this year, HeidelbergCement has met the specific index criteria by transparent reporting on progress in environmental protection and on social and economic aspects. The FTSE4Good Policy Committee has confirmed the membership of HeidelbergCement in its semi-annual index review.
The index calculated by global index provider FTSE Group responds to the rising investor interest in responsible management of environmental and social risks in their portfolios. As a member of the FTSE4Good Index, HeidelbergCement is demonstrating that it has the policies and management systems in place to help address these risks.
