Fighting climate change
Our approach to all that we do includes environmental considerations and reduction of the impacts that our work has. We fundamentally ensure that our solutions and services require the least amounts of power and our remote first working aims to remove any dependence on transport that pollutes. We also ensure that any waste generated by our services is properly disposed of through engagement with the appropriately certified recycling specialists. Details of environmental impact mitigation will always be detailed in any solution or service proposal we provide in order to ensure our clients are able to recognise the benefits to themselves and the environment.Covid-19 recovery
The COVID-19 pandemic led to an immediate change to not only the way we deliver our services but also the level of protection and support we give to our staff and associates. We established, and have since maintained, what has proven to be effective communications and support structures to all whether it is themselves or their families and ensured that their physical and mental health is prioritised above all else. We have actively sought to prioritise recruitment of any appropriately skilled resources who have been adversely impacted by the pandemic when opportunities have availed themselves.Tackling economic inequality
As a business our ethos is to ensure that providing opportunities to all enhances our offering and performance. We recognise and appreciate that in order to expand our business in the most ethical and beneficial way we must invest in the people we employ and provide opportunity to develop skills and qualifications. Our recruitment policy has a particular emphasis on assisting those who find themselves having difficulty in finding work and particularly those leaving the Armed Forces in order to allow them to follow in the footsteps of a number of the founders of the business and attain the same achievements that they have. The nature of our work removes geographical dependencies for the majority of roles and therefore we are not limited to prime areas for recruitment and will actively try to attract those from more deprived areas where possible. We promote our ethos in all our proposals and seek to demonstrate the benefits to the Company and the people it employs in all our engagements.Equal opportunity
Our Company is committed to ensuring an inclusive workplace that embraces and promotes diversity. Our focus is on ensuring that we have the best people for the roles we fulfil in terms of skills and aspiration. We encourage the empowering of individuals and work to enable everyone to reach their full potential. We are fortunate as the nature of our work allows us to provide differently abled employees with the opportunity to develop their career while preventing any negative impact on their health, career sustainability or self-sufficiency. Our ethos is one of mutual respect for all and we have no tolerance for any discrimination against any other person.Wellbeing
We are committed to being recognised as a responsible an attractive employer that is recognised for ensuring a dedication to the support and wellbeing of all its people. Our interpretation of the Wellbeing of our people is good mental, physical, financial and social health. We therefore work and adopt policies to ensure that we create a workplace culture where employees feel comfortable to talk, seek help and support, and where wellbeing is recognised and embedded into all of the work we do and interactions we have. Our leadership have the experience to recognise and acknowledge that events that take place in the workplace have potential to negatively impact on their health, personal or domestic situation as well as their ability to perform their roles which allows us to put in place all appropriate measures to prevent them happening.
