Fighting climate change
Modis is part of the Adecco Group which has set a goal of becoming a Carbon Neutral organisation by 2030 and we expect to reach this goal through concrete action outlined below:
*Decreasing our use of electricity and fossil energy;
*Decreasing the amount of CO2 emissions through the reduction of air miles flown;
*Increasing the number of environmentally friendly cars in our fleets;
*Recycling stations available in every office; and
Use of recycled products e.g. branded face coverings we have used during the pandemic are all made from recycled bottles.
We recycle whatever we can – paper, ink cartridges, mobile phones and equipment. Currently, at least 50% of our stationery is from sustainable forests. Fair-trade and organic products are provided in all our staff kitchens. We have asked our cleaning companies to use environmentally friendly and non-animal tested products. Additionally, it is our policy to ensure the following:
*Non-renewable resources will be conserved as much as possible;
*Recycled materials will be utilised wherever practicable and cost effective;
*Wastepaper will be collected separately from the main garbage and recycled;
*All toner cartridges are recycled via a charitable organisation;
*We use recycled toner cartridges; and
*Fluorescent light fittings are collected, removed and taken for recycling.
We are committed to minimising landfill and will recycle most office waste products; however certain wastes i.e. food will be disposed of using landfill. Wherever possible we will ensure that transportation and disposal of waste will complies with current safe practice.Covid-19 recovery
Our teams remained fully operational during COVID-19, providing business continuity to our clients. We have developed and adapted business continuity plans to mitigate risk and provide practical action plans and strategies during this time for both our service delivery teams and client stakeholders. During this period, the Adecco Group continued to:
*Supported 2,000+ candidates through exclusive redeployment programs from industry to other essential services roles
*Explored and form new partnerships with organisations to form our talent community such as Student Edge
*Engaged in thought leadership dialogue with state and territory governments with a focus on reskilling and redeployment.
*Supported our colleagues and candidates with COVID-19 learning modules developed in consultation with medical advice and guidelines from the World Health Organisation (WHO) to ensure the safety of our staff and mitigate risk for our clients.
*Provided advice and best practice protocols on returning safely back to work through the creation of a practical guide for a safe return to the physical workplace, providing a comprehensive best practices checklist that can be applied across different industry sectors and operations. This is now being adopted by the World Employment Confederation.
*Supported candidates and jobseekers during COVID-19 (receiving an average of 1,000 enquiries per day to 5,000 at the peak of COVID-19), provided candidates with free job readiness training to help them re-enter the workplace with the necessary skills.
*Online assessments and video interviewing tools are already in place in some parts of our business. We increased access and available licenses to implement online tools nationwide to ensure testing and assessments continue as part of our recruitment process.Tackling economic inequality
Further to PPN 09/16, particularly section CSF2. Workforce Skills: we acknowledge many workers have retained their employment in the past few years, the relatively low turnover in many roles has left almost an entire graduate generation struggling for meaningful work that reflects their skills and abilities. At the same time, many of the in-demand roles across all industry sectors, demand some level of new media and IT skills – something our younger generations often have greater experience of than the more established workforce.
We will help support youth unemployment in several ways:
*Opening Doors campaign, driving the social mobility agenda and ensuring a fair and open route to jobs for young people from all backgrounds. This manifests itself in our work with schools and higher-education institutions to assist with CV writing and interview techniques but has also driven a broader awareness of the advantages companies can gain from a strong apprentice or work experience programme; and
*Our Groups ‘Next Generation’ programme is a very successful alternative to the traditional graduate scheme approach many companies have taken in the past, which can leave participants with a broad base of knowledge, but little in the way of specific skills, and often no guarantee of a role at the end of it. Next Generation focuses its efforts on IT and technical services, and sources, selects, on-boards and cares for the workers, providing them with ongoing training as well as pastoral care, relieving the pressure on internal HR departments and delivering up fully-fledged recruits at the end of the programme.Equal opportunity
As a people services, people focused organisation, our business is built on community and delivering social value across each of the communities we serve. Modis International Limited, part of The Adecco Group, drive Social Impact by activating three interrelated pillars.
*Access to Work pillar uses our strengths to support people, whose working potential is currently under-realised;
*Access to Opportunity – we empower under-served youth by bringing our work closer to schools; and
*Inclusive Futures pillar parallels our efforts internally to be an influencer in our industry, to drive diversity and inclusion for everyone.
We actively work with employability partners, government, and local, national, and global charities to support reducing unemployment, talent development, upskilling and retraining. Examples of initiatives we support locally, nationally, and globally include:
*Shelter – we are a key funder and transformational partner of Shelter’s GROW programme;
*Kickstart – we have also committed to supporting over 5,000 young people (16-24) through the Kickstart scheme;
*Creating Brighter Futures Programme – this youth empowerment programme is designed to improve pre-employability and employability readiness for young people;
*Win4Youth – we raise money for people in need through our annual sports initiative and have raised over €2 million through Win4Youth since 2010;
*ACP (Athlete Career Programme) – we have supported over 35,000 athletes from more than 185 countries in their permanent employment through this programme; and
*Partnerships – we work with both Job Centre Plus and Breaking Barriers where we offer training and support to enhance the prospects of local people.Wellbeing
Across Adecco, we recognise the importance of wellbeing, both mental and physical. We have invested heavily in our ability to support staff, this includes providing accessible information to all, including tips and content relating to mental, physical, and emotional support can be accessed, including:
*Links to content at websites such as Ted Talks, podcasts, food recipes that can boost moods and support mental development, tips to sleep better and longer, and a wellbeing hub with online therapy.
*Physical Tips for workouts, challenges to get active, cycle to work, gym memberships, diet and food plans, fitness challenges, and various other methods of encouragement and support to maintain a physically active lifestyle.
*Information on how emotional support can be provided from various sources if required and dedicated telephone lines for support.
We know it is the respect, care, and support that you receive at work that can make a big difference to a colleague’s health, happiness, and wellbeing. We encourage candidates to take charge of their own health, happiness and wellness and give them the support needed to do this. Our leadership team has also initiated an awareness and education campaign to promote the wellbeing of staff and associates across the business to ensure that they are aware of the support that is available to them should they need it. This is supported by our specially trained Mental Health First Aiders, who are distributed across Adecco for easy access to all colleagues.
