Fighting climate change

We are committed are committed to the promotion of green initiatives being Net Zero Carbon in line with the UK Governments 2050 target with the following initiatives underway:
• We have made the switch from fossil fuels to electric vehicles. We are proud to say that 80% of our fleet is now hybrid or electric, and we have electric charging points available at the vast majority of our sites, which are free for staff to use.

• We offer both a cycle to work scheme and an electric vehicle purchase scheme

• All of our offices have minimal gas usage and we purchase renewable energy resources from our supplier for all sites.

• For over 7 years we have worked with Electrotek Solutions Ltd, a zero to landfill IT WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) waste recycling company who are providing a WEEE waste disposal service and secure Data Destruction.
• In our Print services, all our paper and packing materials comes from sustainable suppliers and is 100% recyclable. We also purchase our paper in non ream wrapped boxes of 2500; using 1 million sheets a year saves 2000 pieces of wrapping going into the recycle bin.

• Since 2019 our Print team have been buying our 1 million sheets of paper through the Forest Sustainability Scheme. Our supplier Antalis supports the World Land Trust and protects existing areas of land which in turn, protects the Eco system, communities and wildlife that live there.

• Suppliers must comply with the Environmental Management and Protection Act 2010, and support Delt with complying to its legal and contractual obligations to procure ethically and sustainably. Suppliers are expected to help Delt reduce any supply chain impacts on our environment and any risks associated with delivering sustainable and ethical goods and services.

Tackling economic inequality

Our teams, collectively, deliver significant financial benefits with £16M of socio-economic gain (per annum) to the Southwest and over 300 jobs, that would have otherwise left the region, are now supported through our services.
We are proud of what we do and the benefits our services bring to local people and the local economy it delivers but we are also committed to doing more as described below:
• We have had some great success recruiting students and apprentices as well as upskilling existing employees through the apprenticeship programme. Many of these have progressed onto permanent contracts and progressed into leadership roles within the organisation.
• We have strong engagement with schools, universities and colleges throughout the Southwest where we are involved activities such as mentoring, providing internships, delivering career workshop or attending career fairs to ensure we are building pipelines early.
• We have also signed up to the Armed Forces Covenant with a Silver Award based on the support we provide Service Leavers and Veterans with employment opportunities. We have also signed up to the Care Leavers Covenant which is a national inclusion programme that supports care leavers aged 16-25 to live independently.

Equal opportunity

We recognise we can’t build diverse teams with creating an inclusive environment and we are always looking a way to ensure we are creating a workplace where employees have equal opportunities during the entire employee lifecycle. Our current commitments include:
• We consistently invest in staff’s development and progression through a number of bespoke training and development activities including; role specific accredited qualifications and certifications; secondments; apprenticeships; internal employee and leadership programmes; coaching and mentorship; stretch projects
• Creating work environments, buildings and resource materials which are accessible and inclusive for all
• Fostering a company culture where every voice is welcome, heard, and respected by providing multiple channels for staff feedback – anonymous surveys, staff feedback forums, Delt Rad, Staff Briefings,
• Eliminating bias in our internal and external hiring process by engaging multiple interview panels in the process; made up of staff from across the organisation including cross functional leadership and team roles
• Delt is committed to working with suppliers to address the risk of modern slavery in our supply chains. Suppliers are thoroughly assessed for suitability prior to contracting and by meeting the requirements under the Regulation 57 of the Public Contracts Regulation 2015 enabling us to identify any previous convictions of misconduct or mistreatment of staff through their activities. Delt expect all its suppliers to commit to the eradication of modern slavery in their direct working practices, their supply base or in their extended supply chains. Our suppliers are expected to conduct their business activities to the highest ethical standards.

Wellbeing

The overall physical, mental and emotional health and wellbeing of our staff has always been and remains a critical component to our commitment to a happy and healthy workplace and it is embedded in all aspects of our staffs’ work life. This commitment was recognised when we received accreditation through the Workplace Wellbeing Charter in 2019 and while we are proud of this achievement it now acts as a guide to ensure we are continuously improving. Our commitments include:
• Delivering ongoing Health and Wellbeing training for line managers to ensure we are continuously having open two-way conversations that highlight opportunities to signpost support available including Mental Health 1st Aiders, Occupational Health and Employee Assistance
• Encouraging work-life balance but providing different ways for employees to create flexible and agile working based on their unique requirements
