The Business Council has been taking sustainability seriously for 10 years

News

The Business Council for Sustainable Development in Hungary celebrated its 10th Anniversary at the General Meeting which took place at the new headquarters of E.ON Hungária. Currently, BCSDH has 79 members, representing a community of value-creating business leaders of companies that contribute 30% of Hungary’s GDP.

During the past 10 years, 200 professional events, 200 active business leaders, 100 gifted participants of the ‘Future Leaders’ Talent Program, and more than 130 experts from NGOs, scientific, academic and business sectors have been involved in the Action 2020 Hungary program. Due to these efforts more than 500 business solutions have been introduced that provide real answers to sustainability challenges, and which demonstrate BCSDH’s strong commitment to sustainability.

Zsolt Jamniczky, Member of the Board of Directors of E.ON Hungária and Executive Board Member of BCSDH pointed out in his welcome speech that the organisation has now reached the optimal size which was defined as a strategy goal a few years ago.

 ’10 years ago, 15 companies and one private person thought that Hungarian businesses should take action for sustainability. Now, in 2017, BCSDH has 79 members who engage 400 thousand employees and produce 30% of Hungary’s GDP. Through the community of value-creating business leaders of these companies, BCSDH has achieved remarkable results in the field of sustainability. Nowadays, more and more leaders are recognising that operating sustainably generates competitive advantages for businesses, and are taking real steps by contributing to Hungary’s sustainability goals.’ – said Attila Chikán Jr., summarising the organisation’s development over the past 10 years.

BCSDH has been at the forefront of laying the foundation of this transformation since 2012 when ‘The Complex Interpretation of Corporate Sustainability Recommendations for Business Leaders’ were formulated.

‘At the moment, the most important task is to facilitate the practical implementation of these basic principles. BCSDH members are taking the lead in this process: 55 pre-existing business solutions have been identified which offer real answers to sustainability challenges.’ – added Irén Márta, Managing Director of BCSDH.

Nearly 80 business leaders and delegates attended the special Assembly of Members. To commemorate the jubilee, the founding members of BCSDH (Accor-Pannonia Hotels, ING Bank, Magyar Lapterjesztő, Szentkirályi-Kékkúti Ásványvíz, MOL Group, OTP Alapkezelő, Shell and two private individuals, Sándor Lakatos and Kinga Scodnik) were honored with a certificate.

Furthermore, 10 new members (4iG, Daikin, Duna Aszfalt, Graphisoft Park, Greenpro, Iberdrola, K&H Group, MVÜK, PPD Hungária, and Szerencsejáték Zrt.) were introduced in front of the large group of participants.

Furthermore, a collaborative project between two partner organisations was introduced in relation to BCSDH’s announcement of the need to transform recommendations into practice, and combat climate change. Gábor Décsi, founder of LEO, introduced the organisation and talked about benchmarking research relating to facility maintenance. Éva Beleznay, Vice-President of HuGBC, described the association’s work in depth.

These boots are made for walking – personalized gifts from Allianz colleagues

Member News

Last Christmas, employees at Allianz Hungária, once again, proved their commitment to their responsibility for society. Unfortunately, in Hungary there are a lot of families who are deeply in need, being really poor, they live in extremely sad conditions. These families don’t have either money nor any other resources to purchase warm and water-resist boots for their children. In winter times, which in Hungary can be very hard, children go to school in sopping, thin shoes – no matter if it is raining or snowing. Of course, they easily become sick. That is why Allianz employees organized a „boot buying” activity, buying new and warm boots for 150 children!

The organizers asked the help of local social workers who gave a list about the children with name, footsize and age; so the children got personalized packages. The colleagues were so nice (usually a little, 4-5-membered team chose one children), they felt a real responsibility for these children, so they completed the packages with for example: thick socks, chocolates, little toys, they wrote them short, kind messages. The colleagues of Allianz Hungária loved this activity so much, they proved their humanity again.

Not much to say about the outcome: The pictures of happy kids’ faces and pleased employees taken by Allianz colleagues speak for themselves, don’t they?
