Fighting climate change
Unisys is committed to preserving the environment and have a number of strategies to do this, for our own business, our supply chain and our customers. Solutions to help our clients reduce their carbon footprints largely focus on applying advances in technology to improve the energy efficiency of IT Platforms through migration to the cloud and by enabling secure home working. Our security, collaboration and application services enable our workforces and those of our clients to securely work from home and collaborate and share data. This helps reduce real estate footprint for office space, as well as minimising the impact of business travel. Our consultancy and application services support the migration of workloads to the cloud. This delivers many environmental benefits, primarily increased energy efficiency of IT platforms and more efficient and sustainable use of IT infrastructure. Cloud based infrastructure is more energy efficient than on-premise models for many reasons. For example, additional capacity for temporary requirements such as capacity for peak workloads or development environments can be decommissioned when not in use. Unisys has deployed many secure cloud services to meet highly classified Public Sector requirements, with cloud services delivered from our PASF, ISO27001 and ISO22301 certified secure UK data centres. We bring proven government security compliance coupled with the additional layer of Unisys Stealth® Zero Trust security software built on a foundation of the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF). Our deployment approach focuses on making decisions about security and cost-effectiveness during planning and features a Zero Trust approach to achieve no failures in compliance or security vulnerability. The use of these measures internally within Unisys have contributed to exceeding our target of a 75% reduction in our Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions by 2026, five years ahead of plan, with a reduction of 80% achieved in 2021. - Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery
Unisys services helped support the workforces of Unisys and our clients in the almost overnight transition to remote and flexible working. This helped our employees and those of our clients to adapt the traditional work week and cope with the many challenges of lockdown, such as home schooling. We also supported businesses in adapting to specific business challenges. Our products and services, particularly cloud UC, digital workplace and Stealth security services enabled our clients to rapidly adapt their operating models and keep running during the pandemic. We amended the operational support model of our public and private cloud hosting services to enable working from home, even for high security government customers. To allow social distancing and reduce the number of staff required on site, operational team members were split according to data access. Those working below the application layer with no access to data could work from home. The subset of team members with access to data with a Government security classification continued to work on-site, with all access monitored and audited using a SIEM solution. Employees were rotated in a 2-week shift pattern. At a company-wide level, Unisys is committed to making a positive impact in the communities where our employees and clients live and work through corporate philanthropy. Through the global Unisys Cares programme, we partner with non-profit organisations driving better outcomes and positive change around the globe. We created a campaign across Unisys to support families impacted by COVID-19. A dedicated 24/7 COVID-19 Task Force assisted employees and their dependents during medical emergencies. During the pandemic, we partnered with a healthcare services provider in India, which was heavily impacted by COVID-19. We organised two vaccination drives in Bengaluru and Hyderabad. More than 1,400 employees and their dependents were vaccinated across both cities. - Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality
Unisys is committed to a sustainable and socially conscious future and are a member of the United Nations Global Compact, the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative focusing on advancing human rights, labour, anti-corruption, environment, and other societal goals. Our investment in professional development remains focused on building a diverse and inclusive bench of future leaders empowered to improve our business. This includes reskilling initiatives to ensure that our associates remain as competitive as possible in rapidly evolving technical fields. This is delivered in a number of ways, including (1) the Unisys University with more than 50,000 on-demand development programs supporting a wide range of development opportunities; (2) partnerships with training organizations such as Skillsoft, Global Knowledge and Franklin Covey; (3) Tuition reimbursement for degree programs or certifications and (4) Our Connected Leadership programme focused on developing underrepresented ethnic groups at executive and management levels. Our technology solutions including cloud based hosting, digital workplace services and secure connectivity for flexible remote working support the creation of similar initiatives in our customer base. In addition, our products and services that enable home working tackles economic inequality for job candidates, removing the restriction of requiring candidates to live in a commutable distance from company office locations and reducing the cost of business commuting. We also promote equal opportunity in our Supply Chain: While there is no official policy, Unisys is by the nature of our business a supporter of small and medium providers. We work with many niche and specialist providers to build bespoke client-specific solutions. Suppliers for these requirements by the nature of the services they provide tend to be smaller in size. - Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity
From the top down, Unisys’s mission is not only to offer excellent products and services, but to make the world a better place. We are a member of the United Nations Global Compact and follow its ten principles, which addresses equal opportunity under Principle 6. We encourage equal opportunities and treat all people in a fair and impartial manner, without prejudice as to race, colour, nationality, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, age, and disability or family responsibilities. This is the definition of the fundamental right to equality, safeguarded by the Unisys approach to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI). We actively represent, develop, promote and celebrate the rich diversity of our workforce. Evidence of this includes our perfect score on the 2021 Disability Equality Index, the world’s most comprehensive benchmarking tool to measure disability workplace inclusion. Ongoing skills development is open to all our employees through the Unisys University, which includes more than 50,000 on-demand development programs. Our Connected Leadership programme focuses on developing underrepresented ethnic groups at executive and management levels. Our products and services help level the playing field for employees, both within Unisys and for our client workforces. For example, our products and services that enable home working opens the pool of potential candidates to a much wider audience, removing the restriction for candidates to live within a commutable distance of company office locations. We also promote equal opportunity in our Supply Chain: While there is no official policy, Unisys is by the nature of our business a supporter of small and medium providers. We work with many niche and specialist providers to build bespoke client-specific solutions. Suppliers for these requirements by the nature of the services they provide tend to be smaller in size. - Wellbeing

Wellbeing
Unisys is a people company. We strive for greater outcomes for our employees, clients and partners. We continually expand our Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs and deploy new ways to engage, recognise and develop our employees. A large part of recent workforce wellbeing activity focused on keeping our own employees and those of our clients safe during the pandemic. We limited the number of people working on-site at any given time to ensure social distancing and required face coverings and thermal screenings, as necessary. We maintained safety standards across our sites. This was successfully achieved, as Unisys total recordable, lost and restricted workday rates continued the downward trend of the past decade. Now that the world is returning to normal, wellbeing efforts now focus on the provision of products and services to support flexible working. This contributes to the wellbeing of our employees and those of our clients by enabling the traditional work week to flex to cope with the many challenges of daily life, such as child care, while remaining in full-time employment. Unisys products and services that support flexible home working include Stealth® Zero Trust security software, cloud-based unified communications and collaboration services and digital workplace services with a managed service for ergonomic equipment for home based employees. Unisys has a zero-tolerance policy toward slavery and human trafficking and will not support or conduct business with any organisation involved in such activities. We respect individual human rights and require that our business partners do the same. We recognise our responsibility to protect human rights globally and to provide a fair and ethical workplace for our associates. General awareness on this topic is communicated to all Unisys employees annually.
