Objective & Scope
At GTT, we exist to create better networks, better experiences, and better tomorrows. As a global provider with a customer-first orientation, we recognize our role in creating better tomorrows is driven by not only what we do, but also how we do business, which is evident in our approach to strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices across our organization. The objective of the Environmental Policy is to set our commitment to managing those aspects of our business that can affect the environment as well as defining the measures to review our performance. The scope applies to GTT operations globally and includes all employees, sub-contractors, and suppliers.
