The award of the ESGmark® certification only occurs after passing a rigorous analysis of an organisation’s Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) credentials. The award is an important recognition of the objectives, intentions and actions taken by a company, its management and other team members. Attainment of the certification is an important way for organisations to communicate with their clients and other stakeholders and demonstrate their responsible approach to business.
Kayla Ellis, community development associate at ESGmark® said: “Through their employment practices, social and environmental initiatives and governance, it is clear that Momentum cares about creating positive impact for their employees, clients, and in communities. They are committed to implementing and encouraging sustainability and best practice within the transport sector, and we are excited to welcome the Momentum team to the ESGmark® community!”

ESGmark® certification shows that we take ESG seriously and are always looking for new ways to make a positive change to the planet and society.”
