LONDON, July 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Atlas Corp.
("Atlas" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the publication
of its 2022 Sustainability Report, its third annual report. The
comprehensive document shines a spotlight on the year-long
accomplishments of Atlas subsidiaries, Seaspan Corporation
("Seaspan") and APR Energy ("APR"), for the calendar year 2022.
The report demonstrates Atlas' long-standing commitment to
embedding Environmental, Social, and Governance ("ESG") principles
into daily operations and decision making. In the 2022
Sustainability Report, Atlas applied the Global Reporting
Initiative and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board reporting
frameworks as guidance to determine report content and quality in
terms of materiality, stakeholder inclusiveness, sustainability
context, and clarity.
Bing Chen, President & CEO of Atlas, commented, "ESG has
been firmly embedded in our vision, mission, and our employees'
daily work across the group. As the global leader in the container
shipping and mobile power sectors, our long-term market leadership
and success are built on the foundation of sustainability in
everything we do and for everyone in our company. I am
extremely proud of our team's track record of practical approach
and consistent contribution over the decades. From introducing
alternative fuels to our fleet at Seaspan to diversifying our
energy portfolio at APR, we are making strategic investments in our
assets and operations to lead the implementation of ESG initiatives
as we continue to grow our businesses."
In 2022, Atlas undertook numerous efforts toward
decarbonization, reinforcing its respective market leader
positions. Chen continued, "Seaspan and APR's approach to
decarbonization is centered on forward-thinking commercial
solutions, a firm commitment to evolve programs that mitigate
risks, an adaptive approach to our customers' needs, and making
investments in the future of our success."
Inclusive workplace practices are a cornerstone of Atlas'
commitment to ESG. The Company celebrates diversity and fosters an
environment free from discrimination, as reflected by Seaspan's
strides in promoting women within the traditionally male-dominated
seafaring industry. Atlas understands the importance of investing
in the wellbeing of its global workforce. In 2022, the company
donated to the Sailor's Society and International Seafarers'
Welfare and Assistance Network to support seafarer wellness.
