We believe that whatever the size of an organisation, your business plans should focus on more than just making a profit. This is why our company takes time to invest in four key areas: workplace, marketplace, environment and community.
In each of these areas we have set targets for our company to deliver and achieve. These include maintaining our nationally recognised accreditations and certifications, such as ISO 14001, ISO 9001, ISO 45001 and United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS).
On top of this, we increase the efficiency of our processes where we can to make it easier for our Consultants to do their job and for our customers to access the relevant information. We aim to be environmentally friendly, and continue to reduce our CO2 emissions and our electricity, water and gas usage year on year.
Our employees are important to us and we encourage them to lead a healthy lifestyle. We continue to fund entries to sports events such as marathons, volleyball tournaments, mud runs and football matches.
We believe that to be successful, we cannot be indifferent to the society in which we operate. We believe that community engagement benefits both parties and, where we can, we look to align the goals of the business to the priorities of the local community. We continue to build partnerships within the community through fundraising and active support, particularly with local schools, universities, and charities. We give each employee a paid day each year to support a charity of their choice.
More information on what we do can be found in our Corporate Responsibility Report. This summary report has not been validated by an external organisation; however some of the information within it has been validated through the general quality system that our business works within. We also carry out an internal review of our activity and compile it within monthly reports throughout the year.
Our Corporate Responsibility report also reflects on the progress we have made towards the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals. These goals were adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, to provide a blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet. You can read more about the goals on the United Nations website here.
