Fighting climate change

As an ISO14001 accredited organisation, we have an important part to play in improving our local environment. We are proud to have signed the SME Climate Commitment, aligning our company's CO2 emissions targets to those of the Paris Climate Agreement. We aim to halve our CO2 equivalent emissions by 2030 and achieve net zero by 2050 as per our Carbon Reduction Plan. OCF actively streamline business processes to minimise our carbon footprint and fight climate change in support of Government’s 25 Year Plan. Annual sustainability reporting will be available to Framework Buyers upon request.

Tackling economic inequality

OCF have several active initiatives to tackle economic and workforce inequality. Our graduate recruitment programme works with Pareto Law to advertise OCF roles, screen potential candidates and provide industry specific, digital, and generic workplace skills training upon employment. In the past year, OCF have employed 3 new graduates and aim to employ 2 more within the next 12 months. We actively market in areas that have been predominantly inhabited by people from disadvantaged backgrounds or nationalities to attract natural talent and provide opportunities that may otherwise be inaccessible. All current initiatives would be extended upon Framework award due to the additional resources that will become available.
