Sustainability
We embed sustainability in the way we deliver our services and operate our business across the Tasman.
For Downer, sustainability extends beyond environmental responsibility. It encompasses supporting the communities in which we operate, ensuring the safety of our people, driving sustainable growth, strengthening relationships, and fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce.
Sustainability governance
Sustainability remains a core component of Downer’s first Pillar ‘Safety & Sustainability‘, reflecting our ongoing commitment to minimising harm to the environment and the communities in which we operate. Our stakeholders continue to demonstrate strong expectations regarding environmental performance and responsibility

Sustainable finance
Downer’s approach to sustainability is integrated with our financial decision making, with our Sustainability Linked Loan (SLL) forming one of the key instruments that support our ESG commitments.
In FY25, Downer successfully refinanced $1 billion of its syndicated SLL facility, resizing it from $1.4 billion to $1.3 billion following a review of funding and liquidity requirements.
