2035 Sustainability Goals

By 2035, we aim to:

Health and Safety

Reduce Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) to 0.60¹

Community Impact and Engagement

Engage team members in 100,000 hours of volunteerism²

GHG Emissions

Reduce Scope 1, 2 and select Scope 3 emissions intensity by 30%³

1) TRIR is the number of incidents multiplied by 200,000 hours per the total number of employee hours worked. Our forecast to achieve this goal assumes modest headcount growth over time and that current, newly deployed and forthcoming safety initiatives successfully reduce incidents at anticipated rates.

2) This goal reflects the projected cumulative volunteer hours contributed by team members from 2025 through 2035, assuming modest headcount growth over time and the successful execution of initiatives designed to increase team member participation in volunteerism.

3) Compared to our 2025 baseline. Portion of Scope 3 emissions include those associated with third-party equipment hauling. Achievement of this goal depends on factors that may be outside our direct control, such as the commercial availability and scalability of lower-emission vehicles and the continued development of renewable energy markets.
