Fighting climate change
Arculus has a commitment to sustainability, and has the following measures in place:
All staff work remotely, using video conferencing for nearly all engagements.
Travel to customer sites is kept to a minimum and only when the work cannot be carried out remotely. Any such travel is by public transport wherever practical.
Where flights are the only practical means of travel, we use carbon offsetting to counter the impact.
For any onsite working, we will use a local consultant where possible, or other UK consultants who will travel to site by public transport where practical. Owing to the wide geographic coverage of our consultants across the UK, we are often able to use consultants who are based close to the engagement.
We do not print documents unless this is essential and work almost entirely with electronic documents. Where printing is required, output is securely shredded and recycled.
We will always endeavour to use suppliers based locally to our clients, both to reduce our carbon footprint and to support local businesses.
End-of-life equipment is securely disposed of, using accredited disposal companies who will recycle components as far as possible.
We have a Carbon Reduction Plan, seeking to achieve net zero by 2025.Covid-19 recovery
Arculus works in accordance with all customer Covid-19 protocols.
Arculus has a number of employees who have cross-trained from other backgrounds into cybersecurity as a result of the pandemic.
By providing an option of working remotely, we enable staff to continue to work in the event that they should present an infection risk to others, and to accommodate clients who prefer to work remotely.Tackling economic inequality
Arculus has a strong commitment tackling inequality and is an accredited Living Wage employer. Here are just a few of our initiatives:
Training and Employment: We are a signatory to the Armed Forces Covenant, recognising that veterans are often disadvantaged, and we are keen to support them in resettling. We also support staff who have transitioned from other industries, providing support and mentoring in their roles.
Supporting young people: We run an apprenticeship scheme to support young people seeking a career in the Cyber Security industry. Attracting young people into STEM careers is of great importance in reducing future skills shortages. We work with local schools and colleges to promote Cyber Security as a career choice for students of all genders and backgrounds, through interactive learning sessions such as webinars or classroom-based Q&A sessions. We also work through relevant trade bodies such as BCS and CIISec and engage in a range of community outreach programmes.
Supply Chain Opportunities: Arculus uses SMEs for areas such as accounting services, graphic and website design. Where additional consultancy resource is required, this is also procured from micro businesses.
Volunteering and Sponsorship: We encourage our team to take one paid day off a year to donate their time to local causes. We have a Charity of the Year scheme, where employees will nominate a chosen charity and fund-raise, and the company will match donations raised.Equal opportunity
Arculus is an equal opportunities employer and does not discriminate on grounds of race, gender, religion, or other protected characteristics. We have a diverse workforce and aim to provide an inclusive environment for all.Wellbeing
We aim to provide a supportive environment for all staff, with line managers who are encouraged to ensure the wellbeing of staff. Through daily stand-up calls, we seek to tackle potential isolation. We arrange a number of social events throughout the year.
Staff who need time off for personal reasons (such as carer responsibilities) are granted this, normally on a paid basis.
