Sustainability strategy

Mitie’s sustainability strategy focuses on long-term success rather than short-term gains. It embraces the social, environmental and economic aspects of our operations.

Do, lead, deliver

Mitie is a socially responsible and environmentally sustainable business, but there’s still so much to do. We achieve our sustainability and social value goals by adopting a ‘Do, lead, deliver’ approach.

Our ESG strategy sets out actions and outcomes within the Mitie Group to drive positive change. Phase one of Plan Zero, our commitment to reach net zero by the end of FY25, has now concluded. This reflects progress made through fleet electrification and procurement of renewable energy. We are establishing a new emissions baseline and Plan Zero 2.0 will guide our next phase with new science-based targets and evolving standards.

ESG is integrated into Mitie’s strategic approach, and this leads how we deliver services to our customers.
