SCENTRE GROUP Scentre Group (ASX: SCG) today released its 2021 Responsible Business Report highlighting progress across the four pillars of its Responsible Business Framework - community, people, environment and economic performance. The Group also released its second Modern Slavery Statement.
"Responsible business is core business. It is fundamental to Our Purpose, creating extraordinary places, connecting and enriching communities and Our Ambition to become essential to people, communities and the businesses that interact with them," said Scentre Group CEO, Peter Allen.
"Our leading platform of 42 Westfield Living Centres across Australia and New Zealand remained open throughout 2021, delivering essential services to our communities. This is important as our centres are hubs of economic activity, contributing to and supporting local jobs, supply chains and businesses.
"I'm very proud of our team and their ability to be proactive and decisive in supporting our customers, communities, business partners, people and investors.
"Looking ahead, we will continue our focus on delivering responsible business objectives to drive performance and create value for our stakeholders."
