A Wholehearted Commitment to a Better Future
At Kukkolaforsen, sustainability isn’t just a trendy phrase; it’s a lifestyle and heritage ingrained in every aspect of our operation. We base our work on the Brundtland Commission’s definition of social sustainability, aiming to meet today’s needs without compromising opportunities for future generations. Additionally, the UN’s global goals for sustainable development are a key reference point for us as we shape our sustainability strategy. We’re not just striving for economic success today but also to hand over a thriving and prosperous business to future generations. To achieve this, we’ve divided our sustainability efforts into three main areas: economic, social, and ecological sustainability. This strategy isn’t just a wish but practical guidance we follow in our daily work.
Economic sustainability
is foundational for our operation. We ensure economic responsibility by working resourcefully, following laws, and regulations, and maintaining good relationships with our suppliers. By securing our financial position today, we can guarantee stability and reliability for both our owners and customers tomorrow.
Social sustainability
is a crucial part of our identity. We believe in diversity, equality, and inclusion, actively working to create a welcoming and respectful workplace. We don’t tolerate discrimination or harassment and strive to be a role model for social justice and equality.
Ecological sustainability
is inherent for us, especially considering the unique natural environment we’re part of. We take our responsibility to preserve and protect the environment seriously. By using renewable energy, reducing our ecological footprint, and promoting biodiversity, we work to ensure that our operation is not just a part of nature but also its protector.
But our work doesn’t stop there. We strive to be a positive force in our local community by supporting local associations, employing local residents, and collaborating with other businesses and organizations in the area. We see it as our duty to contribute to the sustainable development of our society to ensure a bright future for all.
Additionally, we’re committed to spreading knowledge and awareness about sustainability both within our operation and to our guests. We believe that education and awareness are the keys to change and strive to be a resource for both current and future generations striving for a more sustainable future. At Kukkolaforsen, sustainability isn’t just a strategy; it’s our passion and vision for the future. We’re determined to do our part to leave a world that’s better and more sustainable than the one we inherited.
