Fighting climate change

Moving to Cloud enables the reduction in raw materials being used, energy being spent to run equipment and transportation pollution of hardware. This helps our aims to achieve further net GHG reductions through innovation and efficiencies; acknowledge the role of renewable and bio-based energy sources and materials while minimising carbon emissions; encourage the recovery, reuse and recycle of materials for reduced emissions and include transparent monitoring, reporting and verification systems.

Tackling economic inequality

Moving to Cloud provides opportunities for businesses to leverage lower costs from shared hardware and more agile and flexible working. This will allow them to provide opportunities that they would not otherwise be able to offer.
From creating new businesses and new employment opportunities, to improving local nursery care, as well as education resulting in recognised qualifications, digital skills and training, Akhter is committed to tackling economic inequality at its roots within our diverse local community in which we play a very active part

Equal opportunity

Moving to Cloud provides opportunities for businesses to leverage agile and flexible working. This will allow them to provide opportunities to those who would otherwise not be able to take advantage of opportunities they are offered.
We encourage equality, diversity and inclusion among our workforce, eliminating unlawful discrimination, aim to be truly representative of our local community with each employee feeling respected and able to give their best.

Wellbeing

Akhter take great pride in our workforce and actively support the physical and mental health and wellbeing of our staff. We all spend a long time in front of screens and amongst much else encourage staff to go outside and be active through a variety of schemes.
We do this both as being morally right and in accordance with; The Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012, The Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 and The Wellbeing of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015. This policy is supported by our sustainability strategy and delivered in collaboration with our supply chain whilst continuously improving our standards, efficiency and effectiveness. We will communicate this policy to our employees, supply chain partners and relevant interested parties and we will review it on an annual basis.
