  Fighting climate change

  Bentley is more than a software company — we are engaged members of the global community dedicated to advancing the world’s infrastructure. Our success is determined by the skills, dedication, and involvement of extraordinary Bentley colleagues and users around the world. ; Advancing infrastructure is key to addressing climate change and other environmental challenges and is essential to sustaining economies and improving quality of life. We are proud to support this essential work of our users through our products and expertise in infrastructure engineering software. ; Bentley has been focused on sustaining and advancing infrastructure since our founding. Building on our 40-year history of positive impact, we are embedding Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) priorities across our business. ; ; Bentley embraces our responsibility for minimizing our environmental impact. We seek to reduce our footprint even as we work to increase the size of our handprint. Through many measures, we are working to reduce carbon emissions across our operations, advance a strong climate strategy, and fortify the culture of sustainability within our global teams. ; Bentley’s Environmental Policy (https://www.bentley.com/legal/environmental-policy/) governs our enterprise environmental management practices and details our commitment to environmental responsibility, including the ways in which we expect our colleagues, visitors, vendors, and suppliers to help drive progress towards our environmental goals and priorities. We aim to be a model for best practices in environmental stewardship and in 2023 took addition steps to reduce the environmental impacts in our business. ; ; In 2023, Bentley:; • Received SBTi approval for near-term (2030) decarbonization targets.; • Developed and launched two Bentley-specific educational pathways courses on sustainability for colleagues.; • Expanded our environmental management team and monitoring solutions.; • Implemented a new travel platform to monitor related emissions in real time and inform our Travel with Purpose Policy.

  Covid-19 recovery

  Our colleagues are essential in driving Bentley’s continued success. Our talent strategy focuses on creating an environment where our colleagues can develop their careers in an inclusive and engaging workplace – one where they feel energized to realize their full potential and talents while making a positive impact by advancing the world’s infrastructure. Our Social strategy focuses on supporting our colleagues, who foster our innovative and welcoming culture, support our communities, and inspire future infrastructure professionals. ; ; In 2023, Bentley:; • Entered a first-of-its-kind partnership with Engineers Without Borders (EWB) International that includes five years of core funding and executive insights. ; • Launch of iTwin4Good and Your Voice, Your Action competitions, encouraging the next generation of infrastructure engineers. ; • Prioritized colleague wellness through two first-time events: OCTO Wellness Challenge and Mental Health Week. ; • USD 500,000 in STEM-related giving in the Bentley headquarters community ; ; The Infrastructure Empowered Workforce Plan (IEWP) is our global strategy enabling managers and colleagues to make responsible and effective choices on the right balance between working from the office and remotely. The IEWP strategy is built on these key principles: ; • A solid foundation of trust and accountability ; • A focus on support and flexibility ; • The belief that meaningful collaboration creates success for all of us ; ; In 2023, we formalized the IEWP strategy to ensure all colleagues had the flexibility to succeed whether working from home, in a Bentley office, or in a hybrid environment. Part of the process included launching a hardware update program where colleagues were equipped with state-of-the-art technology, regardless of where they were working from. Colleague feedback also led to plans for increased collaboration and meaningful connections both in person and virtually in 2024.

  Tackling economic inequality

  At Bentley, our colleagues come from many cultures and backgrounds. They are based in 45 countries around the world and speak 66 languages. All these colleagues contribute their own unique and valued perspectives that drive our success as an organization. We empower colleagues to be highly productive and own their work and careers by supporting an environment where all colleagues feel heard, valued, represented, and welcomed. ; ; We continue to expand and deepen our commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) through programming, offerings, and partnerships that allow us to grow a more diverse, more inclusive, and more innovative workforce that is helping to shape the world’s infrastructure. ; While our priorities did not change in 2023, we focused more on supporting colleagues to take the lead in their own growth, leadership, and community-building efforts. We announced an increased budget for colleague resource groups and compensation for group leaders to show our appreciation for their incredible work in supporting a workplace that values belonging. Our renewed focus on philanthropy and impact encourages colleagues to look internally and extends their support for communities. ; ; Bentley’s Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity Alliance (IDEA) Program includes resource groups that allow colleagues to join peers from across the business and the globe to build community and foster diversity and inclusion. Since 2020, these colleague-led groups have provided a safe space for Bentley colleagues to have courageous conversations, propose changes to our culture, and create a sense of community. In 2023, IDEA programming continued to be a critical resource for support and education. Members of Bentley’s executive management have been key partners for providing access to resources and our leadership team. IDEA includes six colleague resource groups: OpenAbilities, OpenPride, People of Color in the U.S. (POCUS), Women at Bentley, Veterans at Bentley, and IDEA India.

  Wellbeing

  Core to Bentley’s health and wellness programs is My Wellbeing, promoting health-related initiatives where the outcomes strengthen engagement so that colleagues around the world can share resources and ideas to inspire healthy living. ; ; In 2023, Bentley’s wellness programs focused on supporting the mental health of colleagues and ensuring a healthy work-life balance. We prioritized colleague wellness by reminding colleagues regularly to take time off to rest and unwind outside of work, facilitating our inaugural Bentley Mental Health Week, and continuing a focus on the Mental Health First Aid Program (https://mhfainternational.org/). Bentley Mental Health week encouraged self-reflection, highlighting real stories of mental health in the workplace, promoting internal and external resources, and encouraging team and individual activities focused on mental health. To further engage our colleagues, we encouraged colleagues to complete a Mental Health Awareness quiz and donated USD 500 to a qualified nonprofit mental health charity, chosen by a participating colleague. ; One popular wellness initiative posed the question: could 300 Bentley colleagues collectively walk, run, and cycle around the globe in a month? The goal of the first OCTO (Office of the Chief Technology Officer) Wellness Challenge was to get colleagues moving outdoors with the bonus that if they together travelled approximately 40,000 kilometers around the globe, Bentley would donate USD 5,000 to Water for People. Seventy-seven teams of colleagues participated, collaborating on a fitness app to share photos of inspirational locales, examples of #wellnessatwork, and engage in friendly competition. Colleagues met the initial 40,000-kilometer goal within 10 days. By the close of the month, participants had run the equivalent of 221 marathons, walked the length of the Great Wall of China six times over, and cycled the distance of the Tour de France nine times. The challenge embodied the #OneBentley spirit and raised USD 12,500 for Water for People.
