CSR
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is strongly connected with the principles of sustainability - economy, society and the environment. For Q-Park, our Annual CSR Report shows our strategy, focus areas, ambitions and results not only on financial and operational factors, but also on the social and environmental impacts of our business. It shows our commitment to grow responsibly while meeting the interests of our stakeholders.
Q-Park Quintessence, developed in 2007, was our first sustainability showcase with a broad perspective on urban challenges. Linking mobility and parking policy, even claiming that parking policy is the most important instrument in regulating mobility in urban areas - explaining the logic behind regulated and paid parking.
Q-Park's first Annual CSR Report was published in 2008 and we've been reporting annually on sustainability, based on the GRI Standards, since 2011. In the early years, it was all about raising awareness and integrating sustainable development in our day-to-day business. We benchmarked ourselves and ensured we were doing the right things in the right way. We engaged with stakeholders, enhanced the transparency of our governance and our impact on environmental and social issues.
From 2017 onwards, we focused more on developing and implementing shared solutions. We identified how we can contribute to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and our role in helping society progress towards Europe's aim to be climate neutral by 2050.
CSR Progress & Plan
In 2023 we have worked on our CSR Strategic Framework, based on a double materiality analysis. From this exercise we redefined our Purpose, Vision & Sustainability matters to focus on. From here we can progress to establishing roadmaps with relevant initiatives and set targets for 2025 to 2050. The framework also supports our process to being CSRD Compliant over the Annual Report 2025.
