Fighting climate change
We encourage ethical and fair-trade purchasing and sustainable and carbon-reduction elements in our purchasing strategy. Our stated policy objective is to meet our Net Zero carbon targets while achieving our wider Social Value priorities. We have;
Developed a circular economy model approach to our procurement strategy, environmental policy, and prevention strategies.
Ensured sustainability is considered in all purchases
We operate a water consumption and management system that closely monitors water usage and compares performance with published targets.
Regularly reviewed opportunities for reduction of mains water consumption.
Installed water-efficient fittings and technology
Reduced water consumption by 25% in 2023 and 3 m3/person/year for offices.
To ensure new development, upgrades, and refurbishments are carried out to policies, and specifications. We apply independent environmental assessment methods to new developments. Our Waste Prevention Programme focuses on the top of the waste hierarchy, which means increasing the reuse, repair, re-manufacture, and use of industrial by-products. We monitor greenhouse gas emissions. We are committed to achieving Net Zero by 2050.
REDUCING CARBON EMISSIONS
Remote Working: By facilitating remote and hybrid working, we actively reduce our carbon footprint by minimising commuting and business travel. This has the dual benefit of enhancing work-life balance and reducing emissions associated with transport.
Minimising Business Travel: we limit in-person meetings and opt for virtual communication tools; reducing the need for travel and associated carbon emissions.
Green Transport Initiatives: We cycle to stations for public transport wherever possible, further decreasing carbon emissions linked with car usage. We are also replacing our existing hybrid company vehicles with fully electric models to lower our emissions further.
Carbon Offsetting: We work with partners, where we plant trees locally. For each tree planted, a tonne of carbon is saved through supporting internationally verified carbon reduction projects.Covid-19 recovery
Enhancing workplace conditions to support COVID-19 recovery required a comprehensive effort. Adroit implemented the following measures to safeguard the well-being of all engaged parties and the local community in order to contribute to broader recovery efforts:
Remote Working: We facilitated and promoted remote working options wherever feasible
Employee Support and Communication: Regular updates on COVID-19 developments, safety measures, and resources were communicated transparently to our employees and subcontractors
Mental Health Support: Adroit places a strong emphasis on fostering a positive and collaborative work environment. Through regular check-ins and an empathetic management approach, we maintain a healthy work-life balance and emotional wellbeing for all our team members. Employee mental wellness is integral to us.
Adroit is a workplace that fosters a culture of safety, flexibility, and employee well-being. Our commitment to improving workplace conditions contributes to the broader COVID-19 recovery effort and helps us emerge stronger as a united and resilient workforce.Equal opportunity
As a digital transformation consultancy, a core focus is on creating equal employment opportunities for individuals facing barriers to employment and those located in deprived areas.
We are committed to promoting diversity and inclusivity by providing equal opportunities to all candidates based on their skills and potential. We actively seek talent from disadvantaged communities to contribute to their economic growth. Our dedication to creating meaningful employment opportunities drives our mission to positively impact and foster a diverse and inclusive work environment.
To demonstrate our dedication to this goal, we have implemented several actions:
Regular Audits: We conduct regular audits of our workforce to identify disparities in employment opportunities, skills development, and pay. These audits help us understand the areas that need improvement and ensure transparency in our practices.
Equal Pay Policy: Our equal pay ensures that all workers receive fair and equitable compensation for their work regardless of their contract status.
Skill Enhancement Programmes: We offer skill enhancement programmes to all employees, providing them with opportunities to develop and grow professionally. By investing in their skills, we aim to level the playing field and empower them for future career advancement.
Diversity and Inclusion Training: We conduct training sessions for our workforce to promote diversity and inclusion. These sessions raise awareness about fairness and respect, fostering a culture that values diversity.
Regular Feedback Mechanisms: We encourage open communication and feedback from our subcontractors. This helps us identify and address any concerns or issues related to inequality promptly.
We are dedicated to creating an inclusive and supportive work environment where all employees, regardless of their contractual status, have equal opportunities to thrive and succeed.Wellbeing
We have identified the needs of our workforce and local communities, worked with health professionals (also using our Occupational Health service providers) and workforce representatives/community leaders, conducted surveys, held focus groups, and talked to community leaders to provide our Care well-being Support Programme, supporting the Mental Health at Work Plan: our volunteers and certified partner organisation provide health and wellbeing support for our temporary workers, internal staff and local communities;
