Fighting climate change
Jigsaw24 have set an ambitious target to halve our Scope 1,2 and 3 carbon emissions by 2030, and to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2040. We signed up to the Science Based Targets Initiatives (SBTI) in 2022, which is a long-term commitment to true carbon emissions reduction, without the use of offsetting until we achieve residual ‘hard to abate’ emissions.
Since 2022, Jigsaw24 have committed to calculating our Scope 1, 2 and ten categories of Scope 3 emissions that are relevant to the business, including ‘Use of sold goods’, and ‘EOL treatment of sold goods’, for the Apple products that we sell to our customers.
Some of our climate change activity includes:
• 100% renewable electricity purchased across all premises since 2023.
• Investment in LED lighting, efficient HVAC and energy efficient appliances and IT equipment across all sites.
• Electric vehicle, cycle to work and Tram2Work Salary sacrifice schemes available to all staff, to reduce emissions from business mileage as well as employee commuting. The EV scheme has so far removed 21 ICE vehicles from our company fleet.
• Improved Energy performance ratings in all of our buildings, particularly in our new London office that replaced an inefficient four-story building, and improved insulation at our HQ.
• Combined ISO9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 certified management systems in place, ensuring that environmental stewardship and energy management is core to all operations, from design of our facilities to the design and delivery of our service offerings.
• We report to the Eco Vadis ESG assessment platform, achieving a Gold award, and the Climate Disclosure Project (CDP), achieving a B rating.
• We provide a suite of lifecycle management service offerings, such as remote device management & support, (JML) device logistics services, cloud software, and are an authorised Apple repair centre.Covid-19 recovery
The Jigsaw24 Coronavirus Co-ordination Group was established to implement government guidance and legislation, with actions cascaded to staff, customers and suppliers to support our relationships throughout the pandemic. This was imperative to maintain our communities and build foundations for strong COVID-19 recovery. Whole company remote working (with protected spaces for warehouse staff) and support to suppliers in sourcing alternative products ensured Our financial performance was maintained, and our growth continued, with our Public Sector business growing from £400k to £20million+.
We invested in our own remote capabilities and supported our teams with training and support for remote engagement. Since the easing of restrictions, we have continued to recruit using a hybrid location model, opening opportunities for women returners, part time workers and those with caring responsibilities.
COVID-19 showed us that human skills are as important as technical ones, leading us to expand our apprenticeship and work placement programmes to tackle unemployment and skills gaps. Leaning into our local communities, we have recruited six apprentices from Nottingham College over the last twelve months and are working with Business in the Community to identify relevant engagement projects.
With a ‘work is what we do, not where we are’ outlook, Jigsaw24’s care and approach, has maintained our customer and supplier relationships, despite the pandemic. This is driven better mental health, greater engagement, and higher levels of satisfaction from both internally and externally. Remote/hybrid engagement is now our default for non-warehouse/service centre roles.
As the Technology Partner for DHSC programme Test&Trace and Care Homes, ensured our support for over 20,000 devices into critical frontline and vulnerable social services. For our people, we provided a clean, safe space to work – remotely or office as needed – and introduced Health Shield (employee healthcare programme) to support physical, mental, and social wellbeing.Tackling economic inequality
By creating new businesses, jobs and skills, and increasing supply chain resilience and capacity, Jigsaw24 tackles economic inequality.
Our Social Impact Group ensures our values are continually supported, in our business and personal communities.
We judge applicants (through an anonymous recruitment process) on their talent and potential, not just their educational attainment to widen opportunities for all people. Through this, several direct entry apprentices are now successful members of Jigsaw24 in roles throughout the business.
Our head office, where we have been for over 30 years, is based in an area of high economic deprivation and we strive to have an excellent relationship with our neighbours and support local suppliers. We encourage local recruitment and are signed up to the Living Wage Foundation. We work closely with the two major universities in Nottingham to offer development, training and further learning, ensuring opportunities are available for all members of staff.
To further tackle economic inequality we also provide full training and awareness of modern slavery, debt bondage and forced labour so our people can identify and support any instances of these issues. This awareness is also part of our supplier on-boarding, monitoring and training process and we map our supply chains to highlight high risk areas so appropriate mitigations can be put into place.
Our supplier base consists of around 400 suppliers, and we have strong relationships with all of them, with every supplier being supported with regards to ethical trading to an appropriate level.
We increase resilience within our supply chain by welcoming supplier feedback. This comes from day-to-day communication as well as quarterly and annual reviews with key suppliers. We also maintain financial resilience, reduce business risk and generate a positive impact on the wider economy by paying our suppliers on time, in line with the Prompt Payment Code.Equal opportunity
We tackle imbalances within in the UK IT industry by regularly reviewing business practices, from recruitment to development to inclusive data-driven actions, as well as identifying ways in which to support the next generation.
We receive and implement specialist training and guidance from Dr Suzanne Ross, Nottingham Trent University, around our Inclusion & Diversity strategy, including recruitment practices, policies and procedures, breaking down barriers and raising internal awareness. This has included a full remote working policy, enhanced parental leave, anonymising job applications and supporting flexible learning to encourage participation.
We have already made a positive impact by encouraging more women to consider a career in IT by partnering with Nottingham Trent University to offer a bursary for a female student studying Computer Science. We also run mentoring programmes for women in media and support local students with career and education aspirations. We are signatories to the Race at Work Charter, the Disability Confident Scheme, Armed Forces Covenant, and Tech Talent Charter and support numerous work placements, apprenticeships and career returners.
Due to the size of our business, a Gender Pay Gap report is a legal requirement, and it provides a mechanism for us to review, reflect and identify actions to continuously improve within our sector. We have improved our ethnicity data capture and rolled out additional support to all managers regarding equality throughout the workplace. We have a full programme of online training that incorporates equality, diversity, modern slavery and ethical trading. All activity is supported through executive sponsorship, and we have a zero tolerance to of harassment and bullying across the business.
We also create and publish a social value report where we hold ourselves accountable against all seventeen UN Sustainability Goals; including diversity and inclusion.Wellbeing
Wellbeing within Jigsaw24 is not only providing an environment where the mental and physical health of our employees is nurtured, but also about how we improve, support and develop our wider communities; through supply chains, contract delivery, and where we live and work.
We engage with community activity including charity fundraising, local volunteering and supporting work placements with schools, colleges and universities, that benefits both our staff wellbeing but also our community cohesion. We encourage engagement with programmes such as Young Enterprise, Local Enterprise Partnerships and community groups (Woodland Trust, Nottingham Hospitals Charity and Trussell Trust). We have broadened this to include toilet twinning to support community wellbeing across the world.
Locally, we have installed a defibrillator in our head office at Nottingham, to support our staff, and from a community aspect we can extend its use to the wider community and neighbouring businesses. We aim to install defibrillators across all sites, which are/will be registered on a national database.
As a business and community resource, we have seven Mental Health First aiders in addition to our First Aiders, and have implemented Manager Mental Health training, with an aim to make mental health provisions and signposting more accessible.
We completed our Health and Wellbeing survey early 2023 to inform our 2023-24 wellbeing roadmap. As a result, all employees receive health and wellbeing benefits to promote positive wellbeing. Through the ‘Thrive’ App (NHS Endorsed App for wellbeing), we offer 24/7 resources and support include GP access and a counselling telephone line for staff and their families, many who are members of our local community.
Volunteering is encouraged throughout the business, encompassing Jigsaw24 values and the government’s voluntary core recommendations for businesses, to support the UN Sustainability Goals, and increase measurable community cohesion.
