This notice shows our commitment to our policy on Corporate Social Responsibility. And indicates the way we account for our environment, social and economic impact.
This means we recognise the way we operate is important to society & vital to our success. And we believe the policies and practices we follow shall provide long-term benefits. Since each one includes goals and targets, that will have a positive effect. Not to mention improve our relations with staff and the local community.
On this webpage you will find details of our commitment & policies. Alongside what actions we are taking on each of these key areas.
The Steps We’ve Taken
To lower our emissions and help us switch to renewable sources we have energy & environmental policies. Our staff benefit from safe working conditions, fair pay and equal opportunities. Similarly customers are assured our ISO management system ensures a quality service. And controls against slavery, bribery and our codes of practice make certain we act fairly.
Environment
Our environmental and energy policies are designed to help us lower our emissions and energy usage. In reality, this means we are developing a culture of improvement. Where we train staff in more sustainable methods and monitor our performance. This means we now source more products that are recyclable & less of our waste goes to landfill.
For the future, we’re looking at publishing reports & switching to renewable energy sources.
Social
To make certain we operate fairly & ethically, we follow various codes of practice. This ensures we do not act in a way that harms other people, or accept others misdeeds. Such acts as modern slavery, bribery, racism and misogyny are not tolerated.
We have always sourced goods & services from local businesses. Not only is this cost-effective, but it also allows us to collaborate on projects. And we’re always willing to innovate, as our efforts for good causes and the Covid-19 recovery show.
Economic
Being responsive to our customers and providing quality goods is vital to our success. In order to achieve this, we rely on our ISO quality controls and treat our staff fairly. This means paying the living wage, while delivering safe working conditions and equal opportunities. In addition to sourcing products that are affordable, yet compliant.
And we don’t stop there, we also provide on-job training and promote internally where possible.
Built on Teamwork
It has always been our aim to drive our business forwards using teamwork as a foundation. After all, we believe people are our greatest asset. So as part of our corporate social responsibility, we’re committed to helping our staff attain new skills. And value their contribution on our future direction.
In the same way, we put great effort into meeting our customers needs. This requires we are timely with our communications and think of solutions not excuses. Sometimes in order to grow, we’ve learnt you have to embrace change.
