Highlights from Domtar’s 2016 Sustainability Update
Sep 29, 2016 10:25 AM ET
At Domtar, acting on the insights we gain begins with recognizing that each of our facilities has a unique operational context. That’s why we take an analytical approach to develop a systemic, holistic understanding of risks and opportunities at a facility level. This requires making informed assumptions about the future and understanding the dynamics of the surrounding ecosystems and community.

We acknowledge that our various goals can sometimes be divergent, requiring optimization decisions. Making good decisions requires quality data and a willingness to make trade-offs that reflect our values.

Progress is realized by empowering employees with a license to lead and by establishing accountability for demonstrating performance.
 
At a high level, we focus on accomplishing goals within five categories:  Energy, Fiber, Environment, Workforce and Communities.

Sustainability at Domtar is our endeavor to take a longer-term view of creating and preserving shareholder value. We accomplish this by considering how we respond to and contribute to emerging opportunities and risks in the world around us. Our 2016 Sustainability Update provides insight into our priorities on the journey towards becoming a more sustainable business.
