Doing the Right Thing: The Severn Trent way
Every day, Severn Trent employees make choices about what they do and how they do it. Most of the time it’s clear what the right thing to do is, whether it is about doing what’s safe, doing the right thing for customers, doing what is right ethically, and indeed what is right legally.
Sometimes it's not so clear. Doing the Right Thing: the Severn Trent way [PDF]details the principles we work by.
It explains who we are, what we stand for and how we work. It also tells our customers and our business partners that they can rely on us.
These principles apply to all of us in all of Severn Trent’s businesses, no matter where in the world we are based.
They provide a common and consistent framework for responsible business practices and set out the standards we need to follow in our day-to-day activities.
