Reaffirming its commitment to a sustainable future, Luft Logistics highlights its efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda. Recently certified with the 2030 Today seal by the international certification body SGS Sustainability, the company highlights the importance of integrating sustainable practices into all operations.
According to Dr. Rodriane Paiva, Head of ESG at Luft Logistics, efforts leading to certifications need to be continuous and aim to expand indicators. “The commitment to the SDGs needs to be constant. It is necessary to always seek new ways to improve and expand sustainable practices, not just to meet goals, but to truly make a difference,” she states.
She then lists 5 insights that she considers fundamental for organizations seeking to meet the 2030 SDGs:
Clear Axes – Companies that wish to meet the SDGs need to invest in technologies and processes that ensure constant alignment of their operations with ESG principles (Environmental, Social, and Governance). This results in positive impacts not only for the company but for all stakeholders, ensuring efficiency and transparency in every operation.
Leading by example – To meet sustainability indicators, it is necessary to ensure that every aspect of operations complies with the set goals. This includes not only enhancing internal processes but also engaging employees and the community in sustainable practices. Determined leadership is essential to inspire the organization in implementing real changes.
Ongoing commitment – It is essential to understand that sustainability is a journey and not just a goal to be achieved. The integration of sustainable practices should be part of the company’s DNA, with constant reviews and adaptations.
Comprehensive approach – The sustainability approach must be applied holistically, integrating ESG practices at all operational and strategic levels of the company.
External audit – External auditing helps in accurate measurement and setting new goals. For example, this year Luft was recognized with respect to the following SDGs: eradication of poverty; health and well-being; quality education; gender equality; clean water and sanitation; clean and affordable energy; decent work and economic growth; industry, innovation, and infrastructure; reduced inequalities; responsible consumption and production; action against global climate change; peace, justice, and strong institutions.
