84% of our targets were fully or substantially achieved (scoring 8.5 or more out of 10). This demonstrates an increase in performance when compared to the 79% achieved in 2000.

The graph above shows the consolidated results for the 32 targets for 2001. Of these consolidated targets, 31% were fully achieved and 53% were substantially achieved. The target scores are reported in this way to be consistent with reports made in previous years.

The consolidated targets were each applicable to between one and nine business units or functions. For example, nine Business Groups were targeted to deliver sustainability training to 10% of employees. This target was fully achieved by eight of the Business Groups, resulting in an overall score of 96%, therefore overall substantially achieved, despite eight of the nine individual targets being fully achieved. This change in the way the targets were applied explains that apparent reduction in the number of targets fully achieved.

If the analysis is broken down into the 106 individual targets for 2001,76.4% were fully achieved and a further 6.6% were partially achieved.

 2002 Objectives and Targets

During 2001 the process for developing corporate objectives and targets was reviewed. This was to ensure that the objectives and targets set reflect the important issues for Carillion, consolidate on previous years’ activities and reflect the current business strategy/objectives. This process involved a workshop attended by key personnel within the businesses and a detailed consultation process throughout the Business Groups.

Six new two-year sustainability objectives and fourteen annual targets have been set for 2002. The scope and relevance of these targets was reviewed by our Sustainability Committee and senior management to ensure that they are aligned with strategic business objectives and therefore deliver real benefits to the Group.

Carillion Objectives and Corporate Targets for 2002

In addition to the corporate targets above, the Business Groups have their own individual targets which are linked via their identified significant aspects to the environmental management systems. External auditors audit these targets through the ISO 14001 certification process. Should you require details of individual business group targets please complete a feedback form.
