Since the 1990s, CDL has been setting the benchmark for Green Building in Singapore. To raise our builders’ EHS standards, CDL developed the 5-Star EHS Assessment System in 2001 as an audit tool to assess the level of management commitment to safety and occupational health at the work sites. The assessment is appraised and graded quarterly, on a scale of one to five stars, by independent auditors engaged by CDL.

Following each audit assessment, a quarterly 5-Star EHS Seminar is held to present the results to the top management of the builders and consultants. The seminars provide a platform for the promotion and sharing of best practices, while at the same time, exert "peer pressure" on our builders to strive towards performance improvement.

In 2011, CDL continued to drive improvements in its environmental performance across its work sites.
