Environmental Social Governance Program

ESG SUMMARY

Esplanade looks to follow and regulate ESG by continuously stepping forward with methods of improvement. 

To tackle the environmental side, we limit waste products by increasing the rate of recycling while imposing separation of products at every job site. We implement money-saving, emission reducing technologies in our offices and provide electricity increasingly derived from renewable energy sources. 

Esplanade is aware of the social aspect and its obstacles.  To reach our physical goals, we have weekly events like group fitness classes, yoga, HIIT classes, nutritional instructions through our on-location gyms. Mental well-being is sought to be aided through provided health insurance, wellness program, mental health EAP, and a safety program. Legacy planning like 401K, health benefits, incentivized pay programs, and emergency response planning to reassure the social stability. Esplanade also takes part in philanthropy through the FLAG charity foundation and its community outreach programs.

Governance is followed through safety protocols regulated by OSHA, Got Safety, and enforcing EHS and EAP performance expectations. Diversity is pushed as over a third of office workers are women. Esplanade is compliant to employee rights and government laws by providing an employee handbook, licensing, and utilizing third-party compliance vendors.
