Varma’s Annual and Sustainability Report discloses information on climate risk management and the progress made towards carbon-neutral portfolio.
Varma implemented the WWF’s Green Office environmental management system in the beginning of 2016. Our intention is to improve the Salmisaari office building’s ecological footprint and to encourage Varma employees to make eco-friendly choices in their daily lives.
One of the key targets is to make efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in its own operations as well.
Varma is a member of Fibs, a corporate responsibility network in Finland, and Finsif, Finland's Sustainable Investment Forum.
