Fighting climate change
We’re committed to achieving Net Zero by 2050 and will set UK-wide targets through a public commitment to the Science Based Targets initiative by year end 2024. Our decarbonisation targets will eliminate Scopes 1 & 2 emissions from UK operations by 2030. Our annual Carbon Reduction Plan captures our achievements and makes our commitments public.
Being open and transparent about our carbon footprint, and sharing our journey to Net Zero, is key to building and retaining the trust of our staff, customers, suppliers, communities, and investors.
Our other environmental protection initiatives we will adopt in our G-Cloud service provision include:
1) Travel. We promote online meetings rather than travel.
2) ICT. Prioritise re-use or energy efficient and ethically sourced purchases.
3) Utilities. We only purchase electricity generated by renewable energy.
4) Paper consumption / consumables e.g., recycled, recyclable, double sided, black and white printing.
5) Waste disposal of electronic devices in line with the Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations 2013.
We will capture and monitor data, quantify, analyse, measure against targets, and report the impact of our initiatives, seeking feedback from staff, Authority, and stakeholders on how well we have performed and what actions are required.Tackling economic inequality
Our initiatives vary from financial investments in local communities, appointment of local Small Medium Enterprises (SME) on larger more complex contracts and supporting career progression leading to greater earning potential.
Working hand in glove with our diversity initiatives, we will assess the following for every G-Cloud call-off to achieve equity in employment/skills/pay:
1) Prioritise local job applicants from deprived areas where possible.
2) Promote high-earning careers in STEM subjects through schools’ outreach, addressing the digital skills gap.
3) Provide CV/Interview workshops for unemployed/underemployed to help secure work.
4) Fund and manage training and apprenticeships for our workforce.
5) Provide our people with the platforms, confidence, and reassurance to be treated equitably in regards pay and promotion.
6) Prioritise purchases from SMEs/subcontractors based locally to site.
7) Prompt Payment <30 days (typically faster) to support our supply chain.
We will capture and monitor data, quantify, analyse, measure against targets, and report the impact of our initiatives, seeking feedback from staff, Authority, and stakeholders on how well we have performed and what actions are required.Equal opportunity
Our objective is to address equality of opportunity challenges, understand and deliver best practice through positive action, flexibility, adaptation, and support mechanisms. For each call-off we will design a social value proposition that leverages our focus on:
1) Supporting ex-military personnel find work
2) Supporting disability accessibility initiatives
3) Flexible/remote working arrangements to match all lifestyles and backgrounds
4) Training our people regarding equality / equity / unconscious bias
5) Targeting diverse recruits through specialist tools aimed at service leavers, women and trainees.
Our successes with the MOD are underpinned by our targeted hiring of ex-military personnel which remains core to our recruitment strategy. Our apprenticeship schemes complement this through upskilling a workforce with the corporate and digital skills needed by our customers.
To further diversify and complement our ex-services workforce, we work with PETA training providers, to access local communities, students, and graduates for recruitment through colleges with a target of 25% of new apprentices from groups underrepresented in the workforce.
To further enhance the future talent pipeline, our schools’ outreach initiatives promote STEM learning as a path towards high-earning careers, addressing the digital skills gap.
We will capture and monitor data, quantify, analyse, measure against targets, and report the impact of our initiatives, seeking feedback from staff, Authority, and stakeholders on how well we have performed and what actions are required.
