New Delhi: Leading global real estate services firm JLL has been awarded the Golden Peacock Global Award for Sustainability by India’s Corporate Institute of Directors. The award will be presented at a special Golden Peacock Awards Nite at the Millennium Hotel London Mayfair in London.

The Golden Peacock Global Award for Sustainability recognises companies’ commitment to a more sustainable world across a number of criteria, including corporate governance, economic, environmental and social performance.

The Golden Peacock award reflects JLL’s ongoing commitment to sustainability globally and to minimise the environmental impact of real estate, as well as enhancing the economic and social benefits of real estate development, according to JLL India Chairman and Country Head Anuj Puri.

“By providing sustainability services to our clients here in India and around the world through our network of sustainability professionals, we strive to embed sustainability principles across our advice and services, enabling our clients to achieve more holistic value over the long-term,” said Puri. “We believe this award reinforces JLL’s brand and reputation as a global leader in sustainability and our ongoing commitment to being a good corporate citizen in and beyond our business.”

JLL’s early days of embedding sustainability into all aspects of the business via the firm’s Building a Better Tomorrow program globally is one of the primary factors contributing to its selection by the Golden Peacock judges.

The award is the most recent of many accolades bestowed upon the firm: JLL is the recipient of more than 22 awards globally for its achievements in environmental stewardship, ethics and corporate social responsibility and diversity.
