Setting Sail for a Better Future 

We’re using all the tools at our disposal to reduce our carbon footprint, increase our social impact and affect tangible change — for a brighter and greener future. 

Sustainability Starts with our ESG Strategy 

Environmental

These are the actions we take to monitor, analyse and reduce our impact on the environment. 

Social

These are the actions we take to foster better relationships with our employees, communities and stakeholders.

Governance

These are the actions we take to self-improve when it comes to our internal systems and infrastructure.

Environmental Actions

We’re continuously striving to improve our environmental performance and to promote sustainable practices throughout Trident. Our comprehensive environmental program includes:

  • Assessing regularly for potential environmental risks and impacts 

  • Implementing sustainable practices — like reducing waste, conserving energy and minimizing our carbon footprint 

  • Complying with all applicable environmental laws and regulations 

  • Engaging with our stakeholders to promote environmental awareness and responsibility

  • Continuously improving our environmental program to make sure it’s effective and aligned with best practices

Social Actions

  • Supporting local naval and maritime charities and organizations  

  • Encouraging our employees to participate in charitable activities and to serve in the reserves 

  • Collaborating with local schools, colleges and universities to foster an interest in shipbuilding as a career

  • A clear, transparent corporate structure — including well-defined roles and responsibilities for all 

  • Robust internal control systems — ensuring the integrity of our financial reporting and risk management 

  • A commitment to positive business ethics — such as compliance to all relevant laws and regulations, and a zero-tolerance approach to bribery and corruption 

  • Regular and open communication with our entire community of stakeholders

  • Regular review and continuous improvement of our approach to governance
