  Fighting climate change

  Incremental have committed to be carbon neutral by 2050.

Whilst the impact of Covid-19 has seen many organisations change their policies this has been a stablemate of Incremental.; We have always encouraged remote working to reduce the need to travel, and when teams are required to meet face-face we try to schedule so all team members are available on a single day, as opposed to multiple trips to the office. ; Environmentally conscious travel; Travel, where required, is designed to be as environmentally friendly as possible. Public transport is the preferred method of transport but where usage of vehicles cannot be avoided car sharing is the norm. Incremental do not offer company cars to consultants to encourage the use of public transport.; Recycling; Incremental provides recycling facilities and do not use single use cups in any of our offices and purchase some items in bulk (snacks etc.) to reduce the amount of packaging. By providing excellent employee facilities we also reduce the number of “take-away” plastic cups brought into the offices.

We also clearly state that we are looking for people from groups that typically experience discrimination.; • Candidate Interview – During the candidate interview process we do not ask questions based on any of the protected criteria outlined in the act.
