Supplier Sustainability
Our approach to achieving a sustainable supply chain
We only contract with suppliers that accept our TELUS Supplier Code of Conduct or equivalent recognised high standards.
We conduct supplier ESG audits as part of the Joint Alliance for CSR (JAC) association of telecom operators, and manage performance through business reviews.
Setting supplier expectations
In alignment with our TELUS corporate goal to become carbon neutral in our operations by 2030, we are working with our suppliers and setting expectations for them to:
Develop and report a company-wide greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory
As a CDP Supply Chain member, we request that key suppliers report their Scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions annually through the CDP Climate Change questionnaire.
Supporting our science-based target to reduce Scope 3 supply chain emissions, we request that suppliers set their own science-aligned GHG reduction targets (SBTi validated or equivalent). Setting ambitious targets demonstrates our suppliers’ alignment with our own strategy to contribute to reducing carbon emissions in line with the global target for a 1.5°C future.
Creating a sustainable supply chain can only be achieved through collaborations. We expect our suppliers to work with TELUS to drive innovation and tangible progress in sustainability.
