Fighting climate change
i3Works is committed to achieving Net Zero by 2030. We partner with independent assessors, ensuring we continue to succeed in our mission to decarbonise fully and reach Net Zero. i3Works has an Environmental Management System aligned with fulfilling the requirements of ISO1400, this EMS and our alignment and compliance is independently audited. Our Carbon Reduction Plan exceeds the requirements of PPN 06/21.
We collaboratively work to make environmentally beneficial changes, using our Sustainability, Net Zero and Climate Security team, our staff, suppliers and customers. We share and exchange knowledge to be adopted and put into practice.
We embed green, sustainable and low carbon working practices within all delivery. Activities include carbon reduction practices across Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions, the creation of new green spaces, improving air quality, increasing biodiversity, and the transition from conventional fuels to renewable energy sources.
We provide our staff with reusable water-bottles and coffee flasks to discourage the use of single-use plastic bottles. We are committed to donating instead of scrapping old IT equipment so it can be reused and recycled. i3Works uses a paperless office format and we discourage the use of printing in favour of digital alternatives.
Although we have adopted and encourage remote working, we do understand that office and client visits are necessary for the benefit of the project and also for the well-being of our staff. We promote the use of public transport and have an electric car lease and cycle to work scheme to help reduce environmental impacts. We also sponsor various charities such as the Marine Conservation Society.
We monitor and measure our commitments and gather data through a range of appropriate tools using metrics to assess progress transparently. We report information on a regular basis on factors such as reduction in emissions, waste and water use.Tackling economic inequality
i3Works actively promote the company’s Project Controls Academy and Fast Track Consultant scheme. These schemes provide in-depth and structured learning as well as practical experience to help train those employees new to project consultancy to give them the skills they need to be effective project controllers and project managers. These schemes are open to everyone, and we encourage people from all backgrounds to apply, they particularly appeal to recent graduates, those wishing for a career change and military veterans, helping them to obtain new skills, professionally recognised qualifications and relevant experience thereby making us a net contributor of new project delivery talent.
Additionally our recruitment strategy is designed to encourage applications from groups that are less economically active via checks for unconscious bias, accessibility and the use of 'gender decoder' tools to ensure language within job descriptions appeals equally.
i3Works promotes the concept and the ethos of the ‘Living Wage’ and considers paying the living wage to staff and contractors to be a core part its of Corporate and Social Value policy. We have amended our procurement and expenses policies to promote the use of local SMEs wherever possible in order to improve the economic prospects of the communities in which we operate.Wellbeing
i3Works provides its employees with a health package through Vitality, which includes private medical health cover, incentivised physical fitness programmes and professional Mental Health services such as counselling and guidance. i3Works enrol employees in Mental Health first aid courses and have several Mental Health First Aiders. We work to ensure an open, non-judgemental and supportive working environment and have Mental Health champions within the business ensuring that Mental Health is always on the agenda.
We have put in place a specific well-being benefit, giving each employee £80/month to spend on activities that improve their mental health and well-being (i.e. counselling, yoga, massage). We also have a ‘Health & Well Being at Work Policy’ and within the Sickness and Absence policy there are provisions for reasonable adjustments and leave for less-abled employees.
We sponsor a number of charities, but specifically Turn to Starboard, a registered charity that uses sailing to help with resettlement, reintegration, and reinforcing a sense of value and belonging. This support extends to those affected by military operations, as well as NHS Staff and Emergency Services, whose mental health has been affected by the Covid pandemic.
