Fighting climate change
Apex Global is committed to integrating the ‘Fighting Climate Change’ theme into our engagements through how we run projects, how we work in partnership with others and how we think about the future direction of Apex.

We encourage employees to explore their passions, business skills, and expertise to make meaningful contributions to the world around them. Our overarching social value guidance is dictated by our ultimate parent company ASGN, Inc.

Although we will continue to allow our employees to work from home for the foreseeable future given that we were able to maintain high productivity levels throughout the COVID-19 period, now that we are emerging from the pandemic, it is likely at least a substantial subset of people will begin choosing to return to the office on a part-time basis. In-person meetings and interactive workshops will inevitably return to some degree as well. To ensure the return to office has a lighter carbon footprint, we have developed an employee commute reduction program and business travel guidelines.
We offer an employee commute program which includes the implementation of an employee commute survey, incentives to take public transportation, active transportation, and carpool. Further, our Environmental Management Policy also prioritizes office buildings with electric vehicle (EV) parking and charging stations and secure bicycle parking and showers. The Responsible Business Travel Guidelines will encourage prioritizing virtual meetings to reduce travel when feasible, taking trains instead of planes, when possible (lower carbon footprint), prioritizing EV or hybrid rental cars, eco-friendly airlines, and green-certified hotels. We will also standardize the tracking of our business travel with the goal of setting a measurable target for reducing our transportation-related emissions going forward.
