BOARD OF DIRECTORS CEO PETER BERDOWSKI – CSR REPORT 2014:
“We see innovation and enhanced sustainability in the chain as one of the core components of our CSR strategy. We work, often in partnerships, on innovative solutions to make the supply chain more sustainable. Following on from our Meet the Buyer program\ that started in 2011, we organized another three Meet the Buyer sessions in 2014. Eigtheen selected suppliers were invited and they talked to us about themes that included energy reduction, alternative fuels and human rights aspects.”

CSR POLICY AND VALUE CHAIN Our CSR policy seeks to achieve a healthy balance between economic value creation for our stakeholders and our business on the one hand, and care for the environment and societal and social responsibility on the other. Our CSR policy is not an individual item within our organisation. CSR is considered in all of our businesss \ processes. The dialogue with our stakeholders is one of the corner stones of our CSR policy. Together with our clients and suppliers we join forces to generate value through broad, sustainable solutions.

MEET THE BUYER SESSIONS In 2011 we developed the “Meet the Buyer” concept. With a selection of our most important strategic suppliers we have organized 3 “Meet the Buyer sessions”. Set up similar to a supply chain to ensure parties get connected amongst each other as well. The sessions were used to brainstorm about \sustainable possibilities. The aim was to establish an actual collaboration and structural dialogue. 16 Suppliers participated in these sessions. The actual chain initiatives that have resulted from these sessions will follow next. In 2014 we organised the second “Meet the Buyer” session. 18 Suppliers participated, and three new initiatives were selected.
11
SUPPLIER CODE OF CONDUCT After the input of the Meet the Buyer sessions in 2012, the Supplier Code of Conduct was developed. This Code of Conduct reflects our own General Code of Business Conduct.
The Code of Conduct includes the following theme’s: − Society − Environment
\
− Employees − Quality − Clients − Suppliers
− Human rights in the supply chain
12
IMPLEMENTATION SCAN Since 2012, and together with Twynstra Gudde/AdviesTalent, we have been conducting implementation scans with regard to the Supplier Code of Conduct. This shows how supppliers comply with our Code of Conduct. A risk matrix is used to show to which extend suppliers form a risk on CSR and our own business policy. \ The dialogue has been viewed as very positive from both sides. A number of suppliers took the initiative to improve their CSR and further implement this in the chain. During the last four years we have scanned over 70 companies in 10 European countries and Tunesia, China, Vietnam, USA.

IMPLEMENTATION SCAN 2012/2013/2014
\

IMPLEMENTATION SCAN: SECOND TIER Second-tier implementation scans started in 2014 (Tunesia, manufacturer of coveralls) Extended in 2015 (China, factory of rubber floating dredging pipelines) (China, manufacturer of offshore clothing) \ (Vietnam, manufacturer of MOB boats) (Vietnam, manufacturer of davits and deck cranes)

CONCRETE CHAIN INITIATIVES The Meet the Buyer sessions of 2011 have led to the following chain initiatives: Recycling of metals Sustainable dismanteling of floating dredging pipelines. Test Biofuel Test GTL
\
Sustainable dismanteling of ships
16
RECYCLING OF METALS (CRADLE TO CRADLE) CONCEPT We have ordered the fabrication of more than 1100 transport containers for pickpoints (cutterteeth). Re-melting these high quality alloys (and also pumphouses) means they are continuously being recycled.
CHALLENGE \ between the The containers continuously need to be transported projects and the foundries (logistical considerations). RESULT Since the start of this project more than 2,5 million kilograms of raw materials have been re-delivered to four European foundries.
17
BIOFUEL CONCEPT
Together with SkyNRG we started a trial with biodiesel. This diesel consists of used frying oil. CHALLENGE The economical feasibility of bio fuel. This is determined by \ sufficient supply. RESULT In 2014 the technical performance was tested for a large number of trucks. To do so, we purchased 250.000 litres of bio fuel. The test was successfull. Possibilities to use this fuel for our fleet is now investigated.
18
SUSTAINABLE SHIP DISMANTELING In 2011 the Procurement department, among others, initiated first contact with NGO Foundation North Sea, a member of the NGO Shipbreaking Platform. In 2013 we signed the convenant “Sustainable dismanteling”. A hard surface, certification of the yard, a safe dismanteling process and responsible waste control are vital \ preconditions. Boskalis is recognized as an Industry Leader by the NGO Shipbreaking Platform in 2013. To be able to properly implement this sustainable ship dismanteling, we inventarise up front whether or not the materials we purchase are suitable for this purpose (reversed buying).
19
CORPORATE SOCIAL PROCUREMENT In 2013 we signed the manifest Corporate Social Procurement (MVIO) of NEVI. Our aim to further embed sustainable supply chain management has been secured. Furthermore, we organised a Corporate Social Procurement training for all of our buyers of the central procurement department. Norms, institutes and certification were among the \ subjects that were discussed, as well as additional training on the implementation of CSR in the procurement sector, supplier qualification, and how our buyers can work together with our suppliers to further expand sustainability.
