Worker Welfare Principles of Building Responsibly
Subsea 7 is a Board Member of the Building Responsibly organisation, a group formed by leading engineering and construction companies collaborating to promote the welfare of workers across the industry.
As a member, we have also signed up to support the Worker Welfare Principles set out by the organisation.
Single-Use Plastic Charter
Subsea 7 is a signatory to the UK Chamber of Shipping Single-Use Plastic Charter. In line with this agreement, we are looking at ways to reduce our dependence on single-use plastics on our operations and within our supply chain.

Contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
The UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide a framework for achieving the agenda and targets set by the UN Member States that collectively signpost what needs to be done to end extreme poverty, fight inequality and injustice and protect our planet.
We have mapped our six Sustainability Priorities against these goals, eight of which are highly relevant to our stated ambitions.
