Metropolitan Waterworks Authority

The Metropolitan Waterworks Authority Bangkok, established in 1967, is a Thai state-owned enterprise that is tasked with producind, distributing and selling treated water in Bangkok, Nonthaburi and Samut Prakan. The authority plays a key role in providing potable water to these areas, serving over 4.25 million customers.

Summary

Metropolitan Waterworks Authority performs poorly in the 2024 Urban Benchmark, with clear potential to improve its reporting on a substantial number of sustainability topics. The company discloses its measures to manage water leaks and losses, as well as water pressure, quality, and quantity throughout its distribution system. Notably, the company is ISO 22301 certified, demonstrating its preparedness for potential future natural disasters.

To further strengthen its sustainability performance, Metropolitan Waterworks Authority should prioritise conducting and publishing a comprehensive materiality assessment based on consultation with external stakeholders. This will help the company to identify its key sustainability impacts, which it can then effectively integrate into a robust and forward-looking sustainability strategy. The company should also establish measurable, time-bound targets to reduce its key impacts, to strengthen the company’s sustainability performance and build trust and accountability with stakeholders. Finally, the company should formalise its commitments to human and labour rights in its corporate policies.
