Since our inception, in support of our vision, we have made significant investments in new technology and in the innovation of management and operating processes. These investments reflect our commitment to providing sustainable solutions that are also value-enhancing initiatives for our business. Examples of these investments include:
Collectively known as ‘Team Green’ – a name that unites all GFL employees – our talented workforce has enabled us to grow into the environmental solutions leader we are today. Employee-related goals that form part of our Sustainability Action Plan are aimed at building upon our health and safety priorities, improving employee engagement, providing our employees with opportunities to develop their careers and implementing our diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging roadmap. Our commitments include:
GFL has also been committed to giving back to our communities. Our community involvement goals in our Sustainability Action Plan will increase and broaden our community outreach. This includes increasing funding for our Full Circle Project, GFL’s charitable giving program, which allows GFL’s customers to identify charitable categories for our annual giving commitment and our employees to build long term relationships with local charities within the customer identified categories.
More information on these programs and our complete Sustainability Action Plan can be found in our 2021 Sustainability Report.

We believe the passion and focus that we share with our employees, customers and communities to be Green for Life will return shared value for all our stakeholders.
