Fighting climate change

Climate change is our generation’s greatest challenge and opportunity. Climate response accelerator is one of the three pillars in Jacobs global business strategy, focused on enabling end-to-end solutions that we co-create with our clients in energy transition, decarbonisation, adaptation & resilience and natural resource stewardship. Jacobs achieved its previous climate commitments in 2020, becoming carbon neutral for its operations and business travel and adopting 100% low-carbon electricity. In 2022, we further committed to ensuring every project becomes a climate response opportunity, to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2040, and to maintaining carbon neutrality status and 100% low-carbon electricity for operations.

Equal opportunity

Jacobs prides itself on being an inclusive place for all to work and makes conscious efforts to increase diversity and inclusion through our inclusion and diversity programme TogetherBeyond. Our employee networks are central to our approach which has been recognised by The Times as a Top 50 Employer for Gender Equality and Stonewall as no. 6 in the Top Employers for LGBTQIA+ people.

An example employee network is the ACE network, which sits at the heart of Jacobs drive to make Jacobs a fantastic place to work for disabled employees. They provide information, resources, and networking opportunities regarding physical, mobility and cognitive disabilities to disabled staff and to staff who provide caregiving services. Jacobs have also achieved a top score in the 2021 Disability Equality Index (DEI), a national benchmarking tool on corporate policies and practices related to disability inclusion and workplace equality.

Our range of other fantastic employee networks help represent those who may otherwise feel a lack of representation in the workplace and encourage discussion on relevant topics to tackle issues around workforce inequality. These include networks covering disability support, Latino talent, Black talent, LGBTQIA+ talent, army veterans and a women network, as well as the OneWorld network, which aims to be an inclusive environment that actively nurtures and supports our diverse employees and clients across all ethnicities and cultures.

Wellbeing

Jacobs values the wellbeing of not just employees on their projects, but everyone worldwide. In this regard, Jacobs and mental health professionals have teamed up to develop a free mental health check-In tool called 'One Million Lives' to help users assess their current state of mind and provide suggestions for growth. It also offers resources if someone needs more urgent help at the time of accessing the platform. It can be difficult to understand the many factors that contribute to overall mental health and to this tool allows a history of check-ins to be built, to allow users to self-assess mental health over time and identify declining mental health periods.
