Social Value

Social value is about making positive social, economic and environmental impacts on communities and wider society.

At Skanska, we believe social value is a core aspect of sustainable development. We also believe that delivering lasting social value can be achieved alongside successful major construction.

That means, working on initiatives with our supply chains and local stakeholders to help communities to thrive. And it means making decision based on social and environmental impacts as well as financial outcomes.

The approach we take supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and reflects the UK Government’s four priority areas for delivering social value:

  • Promoting skills and jobs through inclusion and diversity.
  • Promoting skills and jobs through training and employment opportunities.
  • Increasing supply chain resilience and capacity.
  • Delivering net-zero and fighting climate change.
