Fighting climate change
vInfosys’ balanced approach to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) enabled the company to become carbon neutral as of 2023. The same approach will be taken with GCloud14, with a strong emphasis on governance and transparency.
Coupled with our strong governance approach and the environmentally sympathetic design of our delivery model, we can:
• Achieve Net Zero by 2028,
• Adopt UN Climate Neutral Now definition of Net Zero: “where a balance between anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals is achieved”
• Identify 100% of emissions, from design to implementation, prioritising the elimination of emissions
• Offset emissions that cannot be eliminated
• Offsets assured by an external environmental consultancy
• Have our suppliers present an action plan to move from offset to elimination by 2029, setting course for a carbon negative future
In compliance with PPN 06/21, Infosys publishes its Carbon Reduction Plan which is available at Crown Commercial Website as well as Infosys’ own website: https://www.infosys.com/about/corporate-responsibility/documents/carbon-reduction-plan.pdf
For Call-Off Contracts, a baseline emissions level set prior to contract commencement will be created using data supplied by the incumbent supplier, Contracting Authority, and Environmental Contractor. This allows environmental performance to be measured against the previous approach. While the commitment to establishing carbon neutrality is set at 2028, granular targets depend upon consultation with the Contracting Authority, as reflected in the timeline.
Supply chain emissions management will be in place prior to contract commencement through the Contracting Partners’ procurement methodology. The reporting design on emissions will be supplied to the Contracting Authority, with aggregated subcontractor emission provided within an integrated biannual report. A sustainability manager will be aligned to the initiative, who will, working with the client, develop a project plan during the first month identifying, each obligation, associated event/activity and required resources (people, venue, collateral, rollout).Covid-19 recovery
Infosys will invest in the local communities and in partnership through this contract will help create opportunities to tackle economic inequality, increase supply chain resilience and capacity thereby helping support COVID-19 recovery. Infosys has announced it will create 1,000 new Digital Jobs in the UK to support post -Pandemic Growth (Infosys to Create 1,000 Digital Jobs in the UK to Fuel Post-Pandemic Growth): https://www.infosys.com/newsroom/press-releases/2021/create-digital-jobs-uk.htmlTackling economic inequality
Infosys’ plan for GCloud14 contracts include addressing economic and aspirational inequality, ensuring end-users can forge a meaningful career and follow curated, individualised development paths toward success.
Infosys creates opportunities for personal growth through training and career development. Increased online training opens a wide range of options to those looking to enhance their skills or grow into a new field, particularly among under-represented demographics where classroom learning is unsuitable. This democratisation of knowledge will revolutionise how people of all backgrounds develop their career. The data on uptake of such training can ensure all demographics are reached and, where proven to be less effective, steps can be taken to identify why.
Infosys has long recognised the importance of tackling inequality; it is essential to creating a workplace where professional growth faces as few barriers as possible. We are adamant that what barriers remain are determined only by aptitude and hard work – never by background or physical characteristics.
This is evidenced by Infosys’ approach to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), with its global foundation investing £30 million last year on education in deprived communities, alongside its community-focussed Springboard learning platform and other philanthropic efforts. We have the commitment and expertise to deliver a transformation that has a meaningful impact on economic inequality.
Working with Local Authorities, including Brent and Sandwell Borough Councils, Infosys has made over 220 vocational courses available to the public free of charge. Local Authorities have adopted the technology as their skills platform of choice and are driving citizens towards the tool.
This will result in high-quality training reaching those in need, doubling the reach of the Infosys Springboard deployment in the UK. Furthermore, it will ensure that the co-morbidities of poor educational and health outcomes linked to economic inequality are addressed through a single tool.Equal opportunity
Infosys supports businesses to create their modern slavery policy, helping them to map their supply chain and create robust procedures. This methodology ensures a proactive, compliant approach to modern slavery whereby action planning is reviewed and renewed to adapt to the changing practices.
The UK proudly boasts the highest ranking on Global Slavery Index as the most active country in the world fighting the practice. This achievement is the perfect expression of the values at the core of Britain’s democratic traditions; its global leadership in this area is a source of pride for colleagues working on this engagement.
We will contribute to this under-celebrated achievement by ensuring the Gcloud14 contracts result in net reduction of Modern Slavery. We will achieve this by keeping the practice out of our supply chain while taking targeted action to improve the lives of people most at risk of exploitation. We will build our approach with close reference to the UK Government guidance on modern slavery.
To ensure a clear understanding of the risks of modern slavery and human trafficking across our organisations, we conduct training with relevant members of the supply chain on staffing benefits and appropriate anti-sexual harassment policies. In line with the policies that apply to our own staff, we require our human resource suppliers to provide training to their employees on their rights, wages policy, benefits, and grievance redressal forums; this is periodically and randomly audited. We have also circulated to our supply chain management employees a training module to improve awareness on modern slavery and human trafficking –a core responsibility of their role.
The programme will be governed by the overall social value governance model under the Social Value Manager’s accountability, who will share a narrative report every six months with the contracting authority on supplier performance.Wellbeing
At Infosys, employee’s health and wellbeing drives a culture of wellness.
Through our efforts, our employee well-being rates reached an all-time high of 91% among employees across locations, even with the virtual setup. The sense of connectedness stands at 88% because of the ability of different teams to come together and collaborate with each other emotionally. We successfully touched the lives of 150,000+ employees through 431+ initiatives, witnessing a three-fold increase in employee participation virtually.
We created three aspects essential to shaping employee experience:
1. Self-Help: Emphasises providing our employees the right tools and resources for them to take charge of their wellbeing.
2. Micro-Environment: Our objective is to create an environment that is conducive for individuals to work together, seamlessly.
3. Macro Environment: The focus here is on driving the programs centrally, conceptualising policies keeping the user at the centre.
Great Place to Work® and Fortune have recognised Infosys as one of the Best Big Companies to Work For™. In alignment with the organisations’ social value themes to ensure Employee wellbeing and health improvement, Infosys invests in following engagements:
• New approaches to focus on prevention, resilience supported by internal policies. For instance, digital platforms for scientifically validated therapies such as cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to improve access to care options.
• Infosys Employee Assistance Programme, powered by LifeWorks via Generali, a 24/7 service for our employees or eligible dependents.
• Infosys, in collaboration with Virgin Pulse are committed to augment health and wellness agenda of UK by providing free/subsidised memberships.
To monitor the effectiveness of these programmes our HR team conduct regular surveys, and as part of town halls take direct feedback. Data collected is used to ensure that the programmes are reaching the right people and are adjusted to meet the changing needs of our employees.
