Our sustainability strategy and journey

Our sustainability strategy focuses on enabling long-term value creation. Supported by four key pillars, this approach engages all SMG teams, with each employee contributing to our goals.

Pillar 1: Leading with integrity

We embrace ethical standards, governance, and transparency. The Sustainability Team, supported by Sustainability Champions across business units, drives the strategy, implements the roadmap, raises awareness, and actively engages employees. The Sustainability SteerCo, overseen by the BoD, monitors progress, helping ensure ethics and trust.

Pillar 2: Securing our digital future

We prioritise cybersecurity and data protection to build trust with our customers and stakeholders.

Our comprehensive security strategy is supported by resilient systems and processes to protect against threats. Data protection is also deeply integrated into our operations, aimed at ensuring compliance with regulations and safeguarding sensitive information with precision and care.

All employees play a role in maintaining high standards of security and trust. For this, awareness is crucial. We train employees and alert our customers to recognise cyber risks and adhere to data protection standards. Additionally, we collaborate with industry partners and Swiss authorities to support a cyber-resilient and secure digital landscape in Switzerland.

Pillar 3: Empowering our employees

We foster an inclusive and supportive workplace where everyone is valued and encouraged to contribute. SMG offers a flexible, people-first environment, encouraging ownership and autonomy. We support growth through culture training, leadership development, and regular feedback aligned with our values.

Pillar 4: Driving positive impact

We focus on climate action, responsible consumption, and community support to create meaningful change. Our comprehensive carbon dioxide (CO₂) measurement across SMG guides our net-zero targets and drives our decarbonisation strategy.
