Fighting climate change
Digital Futures is committed to combatting climate change by integrating sustainable practices into every facet of our operations. We prioritise the adoption of environmentally friendly technologies and advocate for digital solutions that actively reduce carbon footprints. Our Environmental Policy is readily accessible to all staff via our HR system and is thoroughly discussed during employee inductions, ensuring that sustainability remains a core focus throughout our organisation. Additionally, we transparently report our carbon footprint on an annual basis, making this information readily available on our website for both employees and clients to see how we are performing against targets. Our training programs place significant emphasis on the importance of sustainability in technology development. By instilling a strong awareness of environmental impact within our teams we are cultivating an organisation of professionals who not only excel in their technical expertise but also prioritise sustainability in their work. Through these concerted efforts, Digital Futures actively contributes to fostering a more sustainable future, aligning technological innovation with the imperative need for environmental stewardship.Covid-19 recovery
Established during the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Digital Futures is dedicated to aiding recovery efforts. As a mission-driven entity, we help provide sustainable employment opportunities across the UK through our innovative solutions. Our reskilling and upskilling programmes play a pivotal role in this endeavour, addressing the skills gap exacerbated by automation and equipping individuals with essential digital proficiencies tailored for emerging career demands. By offering pathways for retraining, we empower individuals to navigate the post-pandemic landscape with confidence, fostering employment resilience and bridging the digital divide. Our strategic collaborations with diverse organisations on digital transformation projects have tangible impacts on pandemic recovery. Through these partnerships, we enhance service delivery to communities adversely affected by the pandemic, amplifying positive societal recovery efforts and increasing overall resilience. In essence, Digital Futures stands at the forefront of post-pandemic recovery, leveraging our expertise to drive transformative change and facilitate a sustainable, inclusive future.Tackling economic inequality
Digital Futures is dedicated to addressing economic inequality through proactive measures aimed at fostering diversity and inclusion in the tech industry. We firmly believe in removing barriers to access to high-quality digital skills training and career opportunities. By eliminating educational requirements from our application process, we open doors for individuals from underrepresented and economically disadvantaged backgrounds, directly addressing the skills gap and boosting employability in the technology sector. Our tailored training programs and career pathways provide sustainable employment opportunities in high-demand digital roles, empowering individuals to thrive in the digital economy. Our commitment to diversity extends beyond training initiatives. We actively engage with diverse talent pools, seeking out individuals from lower socio-economic backgrounds and underrepresented communities. Through targeted outreach and recruitment efforts, we ensure that opportunities are accessible to a wide range of candidates, contributing to a more inclusive tech industry and promoting social value through increased diversity and equality. In addition to our focus on diverse talent acquisition, Digital Futures embraces a "hire locally" approach for our clients. By sourcing talent from communities across the country, we not only provide economic opportunities to individuals but also support local economies and contribute to regional development. This approach aligns with our mission to provide access to digital skills and opportunities, ensuring that economic benefits are distributed equitably across society. Through these efforts, Digital Futures is breaking down barriers to entry in the technology field, transforming it into a catalyst for social and economic upliftment. By championing diversity, inclusion, and accessibility, we are building a more equitable and prosperous future for all.Equal opportunity
Digital Futures is dedicated to fostering equal opportunities by championing diversity and inclusivity across the tech landscape. Our initiatives are designed to engage individuals from historically marginalised groups, such as women, BAME communities, and those from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. To ensure tangible progress, we've set internal targets to drive our actions and serve as benchmarks for our ongoing commitment to diversity and social value. These targets are; 50% of our workforce identify as female. 50% of our employees are from Ethnic Minority backgrounds. 25% of our workforce come from social mobility backgrounds, including those who received school meals and/or attended state schools. Transparency is key to our approach. We regularly report our diversity statistics as part of the Tech Talent Charter, providing visibility into our progress and initiatives. Additionally, we're committed to sharing diversity stats, where appropriate, on the teams deployed to client sites, ensuring transparency and accountability in our partnerships. Through these concerted efforts, Digital Futures is not just breaking down barriers but also building bridges to a more inclusive and equitable digital future. By providing equal opportunities and fostering diverse talent, we're driving positive change and creating a tech industry that reflects the richness and diversity of our society.Wellbeing
The Engagement Management Framework by Digital Futures serves as a cornerstone in prioritising employee wellbeing, a vital aspect of our commitment to social value. Through this framework, we ensure continuous support and care for our onsite teams, particularly during their deployment into client. Recognising the challenges associated with working on client sites and delivering high profile projects, we place a strong emphasis on nurturing the mental and professional wellbeing of our team members. Our comprehensive approach includes structured support mechanisms such as dedicated mentorship, personalised development plans, and access to resources like online learning modules. These resources are instrumental in proactively identifying and addressing issues, thereby fostering a healthier and more supportive work environment. In addition to our Engagement Management Framework, Digital Futures is proud to offer a dedicated Wellness Centre as part of our employee benefits package. This facility provides a range of services and resources aimed at promoting physical and mental wellbeing among our team members.
We believe in the importance of fostering a supportive and engaging culture within our organisation. To this end, we regularly organise company events and initiatives that bring individuals together and encourage collaboration and camaraderie. These events not only enhance employee morale but also contribute to building a sense of belonging and community within Digital Futures. We are committed to creating a workplace where our team members can thrive both personally and professionally, ultimately contributing positively to the broader community's social value.
