  Fighting climate change

  Bridgeall is committed to achieving net zero CO2e emissions. We have appropriate steps to measure our CO2 emissions and take into consideration changing business circumstances, an evolving supplier landscape and flexible employee working habits to refine emissions figures and targets on an ongoing basis. We regularly review and, when necessary, update carbon reduction and environmental initiatives to continue progress towards net zero. We are committed to monitoring and reducing our environmental impact through measures like reducing energy use at our premises and for business travel, reusing and recycling materials, and considering environmental factors when purchasing. Our office segregates waste for recycling through William Tracey Group. We also comply with the ISO14001 standard for environmental management systems.; Our senior management team regularly meet to discuss targets for reducing energy consumption and our carbon footprint in delivery. Our staff primarily work from home, reducing commuting impact by 60% compared to pre-Covid. We encourage public transport for client site visits.; Through our waste partner, we fully recycle redundant hardware per best practice from Zero Waste Scotland and SEPA. We utilise specialist recycling to collect and process IT waste compliantly with WEEE regulations. Hard drives undergo secure NSA-approved destruction or UK government NCSC certified data erasure.; Our use of cloud computing provides significant energy savings through reduced hardware needs. We have extended server lifespans by repurposing older models, reducing new server purchases by 80% over 3 years. Virtualised Cloud/Virtual Desktop PCs will extend desktop/laptop lifespans also.; We extensively utilise Microsoft's Azure Cloud for our service delivery. Microsoft has committed to 100% renewable energy by 2025, being water-positive by 2030, zero waste certification by 2030, and net zero deforestation from new construction.

  Covid-19 recovery

  Bridgeall is committed to delivering exceptional value and service, particularly in the context of Covid-19 recovery. All through the pandemic we took necessary steps to ensure both our staff and customers were safe. We adopted a hybrid working environment and promoted working from home and continued to deliver our services without interruption. Our approach is tailored to meet the unique needs of our customers, ensuring that we understand their business, goals, and challenges to implement solutions that drive success. We have a proven track record of adapting quickly to changing circumstances, as evidenced by our rapid development of a new application system for Time for You (TFY) Care to handle increased caseloads during the pandemic.; Our commitment to social value is embedded in our operations. We strive to invest in our client’s business, projects, and communities, aiming to deliver environmental, social, and financial returns. This is exemplified by our work with Link Housing Association, where we provide annual financial sponsorship of their charity foundation, Link Living, which supports children and adults affected by trauma or disadvantage.; In our tender responses, we demonstrate our ability to deliver against social value themes. We propose credible targets and ensure performance is monitored against the National Themes, Outcomes, and Measures (TOMs) developed by the Social Value Portal. Our dedication to social value, particularly in aiding Covid-19 recovery, is evident in our strategic approach to service delivery, our investment in community and environmental projects, and our adherence to rigorous standards that ensure we contribute positively to society.

Our approach is multifaceted, focusing on creating employment opportunities, investing in skills development, and supporting local communities.; Our initiatives contribute to economic equality, such as our apprenticeship programs that offer valuable training and experience to young people, our partnerships with local educational institutions (Digital Critical Friends - 3 Bridgeall technical team members are mentors for Teachers in schools across Scotland. Their responsibility is around consulting, advising, supporting, and promoting, IT and computing amongst younger groups.), and our commitment to fair and ethical business practices that ensure the prosperity of the communities we serve.; Our procurement policies are designed to support small and medium-sized enterprises where possible, promoting local economic development and sustainability.; We are an accredited Living Wage Employer and support the Living Wage movement, valuing fair wages to attract and retain top talent while boosting staff morale and productivity. We oppose Exploitative Employment Practices like Zero Hours Contracts; Our commitment to fighting economic inequality is not only a moral imperative but also a strategic business decision that enhances our competitiveness and aligns with our values of integrity, respect, and social responsibility.; Bridgeall's commitment to social responsibility also extends to supporting local communities, as evidenced by our monthly food/money donations to the Glasgow Northeast foodbank. We have also supported them by providing IT resources for specific projects to assist them. This initiative is part of our broader efforts to address economic inequality and support those in need. Our contributions to the foodbank help provide essential supplies to families and individuals affected by economic hardship, reinforcing our pledge to foster a more equitable society. Through actions like these, Bridgeall not only demonstrates corporate citizenship but also strengthens community ties and supports sustainable development goals.

  Equal opportunity

We abide by the Equality Act 2010 and have established a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we serve. Our policies ensure fair treatment for all, with a particular focus on supporting disabled individuals through career development and tailored training programs.; Our commitment to fair work practices is evident in our status as a signatory to the Scottish Government's Scottish Business Pledge and our accreditation as a Living Wage Employer. We believe that fair compensation is crucial for attracting and retaining top talent, boosting morale, and enhancing productivity. Investing significantly in staff development, we prioritise continuous learning and growth, tailoring training based on annual appraisals, and offering various resources for advancement.; Bridgeall has made significant progress in improving employee retention over the past few years. The retention rates have steadily increased from 82% in 2021 to 98% in 2023.; To ensure a consistent team with minimal turnover we adopt numerous practices across the entire business, which includes; Investing in Employee Development, Competitive Compensation and Benefits, Work-Life Balance, Flexible Working, Transparent Communication, Recognising and Celebrating Achievements, Addressing Employee Concerns, Promoting Mental Health & Well Being, Collaboration and Team-Building Exercises, Career Growth Opportunities, Exit Interviews and Analysis, Annual Reviews and Recognition Program.; Bridgeall's dedication to equal opportunities is not just a policy but a core principle that guides our actions and decisions, ensuring a workplace where everyone can thrive.

These policies undergo regular reviews to align with best practices and evolving needs. We actively promote a culture of openness and support through regular communications highlighting available resources, wellness events, relaxation techniques, and tips for maintaining a healthy work-life balance.; Mental health is a key priority for Bridgeall. We have a dedicated intranet site serving as a central hub for mental health resources, information, and support services. Employees can access articles, guidance, and tools to enhance their mental wellbeing. Additionally, some select staff are trained Mental Health First Aiders who can provide a confidential listening ear and suggest appropriate support options when needed.; Bridgeall encourages a healthy work-life balance through flexible work arrangements, enabling employees to strike an equilibrium between professional commitments and personal lives.
