Fighting climate change

Glider adheres to all relevant environmental legislation and regulations, operating in an environmentally sensitive manner. The company's environmental policy and carbon reduction plan (both available on request) outlines our commitment to sustainability and net zero.

We are committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 at the latest. Operating as a fully-remote working business helps us to minimise travel, commuting and associated emissions. We are working on significant carbon reduction initiatives, such as operating fully remotely and implementing a sustainable environmental policy. Looking ahead, the company is planning further initiatives over the next decade. These include evaluating the feasibility of hiring an Environmental Manager, implementing equipment recycling programs, scrutinising supply chain emissions, partnering with organisations for carbon offsetting and providing enhanced environmental training for employees.

Our software platform, gliderbim®, is a collaborative information management platform that enables remote parties to engage around electronic information and workflows to make infirmed decisions about their projects, programmes and assets in their wider estate. This reduces traditional, printed documentation and collaborative working significantly reduces travel and association carbon emissions for our users.

Through a combination of proactive measures, strategic planning and ongoing evaluation, Glider Technology is dedicated to not only reducing its carbon footprint but also fostering a culture of environmental responsibility across its operations.

Covid-19 recovery

Glider Technology is a fully remote company, which meant we are able transition to the challenging conditions of the Covid 19 pandemic seamlessly. We were able to transition our operations to ensure continuity and stability and offer employees flexibility if needed.

While our business operations have remained resilient, we recognise the importance of prioritising the health and wellbeing of our staff. We understand that remote work comes with its own set of challenges, including isolation and increased stress levels. Therefore, we have implemented comprehensive support systems to address the physical, mental and emotional needs of our employees.

We continue to stay committed to supporting the health and wellbeing of our staff while maintaining the integrity and efficiency of our remote operations.

Tackling economic inequality

Glider is committed to addressing economic inequality, ensuring fair treatment and opportunities for all staff members throughout their employment. We employ various strategies to achieve this goal:

Fair Wages and Benefits: Glider implements a rigorous development procedure that considers each staff member's wages, ensuring alignment with their role and industry standards. Salaries are reviewed annually based on performance, with a focus on maintaining parity with the national living wage. Additionally, we offer a comprehensive benefits package, including private medical insurance, group life insurance, sick pay and additional leave days. We also promote flexibility and family-friendly policies to support employees' diverse needs.

Diversity and Inclusion: We are commitment to diversity and inclusion and actively work to eliminate discrimination and promote equality. We value our diverse workforce and prohibit discrimination based on various factors, fostering a culture of meritocracy, openness, fairness and transparency. Detailed information on diversity initiatives can be found in our Equality & Diversity Policy, which is available on request.
Community Engagement: Glider demonstrates its commitment to supporting communities through various initiatives, including volunteering, fundraising, and financial contributions. The company partners with local and national charities, such as Stronger Together, to address issues like isolation and mental health. Glider also supports team members in their fundraising activities and sponsors initiatives to promote diversity and inclusion in the construction industry.

Skill Development & Training: Glider prioritises the continuous development of its staff to ensure competence in their roles and adaptability to changing requirements. Training opportunities are provided through mandatory training, personal development plans and learning programs tailored for managers. All employees receive relevant training, both internally and externally, to enhance their skills and support their continual professional growth.

Through these initiatives, we're able to contribute to tackling economic inequality, fostering an inclusive workplace culture and making meaningful contributions to our community.

Additionally, we offer a robust benefits package, including private medical insurance, sick pay and additional leave days, while maintaining flexibility to accommodate the diverse needs of our employees and their families.

We actively work to eliminate discrimination based on age, disability, gender, race, religion, or any other irrelevant factor, fostering a culture that values meritocracy, openness and transparency. Our dedication to diversity and inclusion is reflected in our policies and practices, and more details on these can be provided on request. Furthermore, our engagement with local and national charities demonstrates our commitment to supporting marginalised communities and promoting diversity in our industry.

Through ongoing skill development and training opportunities, we empower our employees to excel in their roles and adapt to evolving challenges. Whether through mandatory training, personal development plans, or specialised programmes for managers, we ensure that all staff members receive the support they need to thrive professionally.
