  Fighting climate change

  TSL has completed a carbon reduction plan PPN-0621); ; TSL has signed up to the SME climate commitment and SME Climate Hub training program; ; TSL have an environment policy, the Head Of Operations is designated as the environment office, the CEO as the ESG officer.; ; TSL’s carbon reduction strategy has the following pillars:; ; TSL work is performed within the public cloud TSL, having zero physical assets beyond Laptops, there is no physical servers or other hardware; ; TSL uses a shared office facility when we need an physical meeting location. By doing this we remove all physical infrastructure, and all associated carbon emissions associated with this.; ; All workers are remote workers, we aim to minimise travel and minimise face to face meetings. By doing so we reduce our CO2 emissions through minimising travel to absolute essential customer facing meetings.; ; TSL’s philosophy is to act as a facilitator for companies moving to the public cloud, and hybrid cloud. We believe by aiding companies movement into the cloud, we are helping to remove all the physical infrastructure associated with on-prem physical servers, and all the associated buildings and electrical power.; ; In addition to helping companies move into the cloud, TSL also specialises in cloud specific Financial Operations. TSL works with clients to put in place the product/people/process to ensure the “utilisation creep” that occurs when engineering teams running DevOps processes continue to add more processing power, faster I/O, more storage, without thinking through the implications on the greater financial and associated resource usage theyare acquiring. A TSL competence is to work with clients to optimise their usage of Cloud infrastructure to optimise the clients deployment and put in place the governance to ensure clients use cloud resource as effectively as possible

  Tackling economic inequality

  TSL are a boutique cloud consultancy, we provide opportunities for people from all backgrounds. Importantly, as we are a fully remote worker company, we can and will hire staff who are located anywhere in the UK. Ensuring that, the economic benefits of the work we do is not concentrated in Metropolitan areas only. We have staff based on working from Scotland, the North West and North East of England, as well as London and the South; ; As a small company, with staff who all tend to be senior or principle grade, it is difficult for us to hire staff who have no experience or education in the cloud software and architecture we specialise in. However, we are committed to identifying ways to provide technical apprenticeships, internships, and to hire support staff who may live outside the key metropolitan hubs and can contribute to the business.; ; We believe by offering a flexible work environment, along with an open environment with minimal top down edict, we perform well against the government’s six standards. A good indicator of this is the fact, we have a number of staff who are in their late 50’s and early 60’s, who participate actively and enthusiastically in the running of the business.

  Equal opportunity

  In terms of diverse recruitment, TSL follow the rules as set out in the Equality Act 2010, TSL are an equal opportunity employer, we ensure we do take into account the protected characteristics as defined in the Equality act, namely:; ; a. Age; b. Disability; c. Gender reassignment; d. Marital or civil partnership status; e. Pregnancy or maternity; f. Race (which includes colour and ethnic/national origin); g. Religion or belief; h. Sex; i. Sexual orientation; ; TSL’s CEO is Female, and a significant number of staff in operational positions are female.; ; Overall responsibility for the effective implementation and operation of the TSL Equal Opportunities policy lies with THE SERVER LABS LTD’s management, specifically with the board of directors and our HR team. All managers are expected to lead by example, and attain and maintain appropriate standards of behaviour within the teams they manage.; ; However, everyone who works in and with THE SERVER LABS LTD is responsible for ensuring the equal opportunities policy works to prevent the activities that it prohibits from taking place within our business. Because we are a values-led business, this goes beyond the legal obligations the company has.; ; In any recruitment selection process that we use within our business, whether we’re selecting interviewees for job opportunities, offering jobs, identifying individuals for promotion or considering other opportunities or necessities (like redundancy situations), we will apply a rigorous, objective selection process using non-discriminatory criteria, as far as possible.; ; TSL prides itself on its technical excellence, experience and expertise, TSL specifically looks for engineering experience and expertise, not educational background or grade, but track record.

  Wellbeing

  TSL operate a flexible working policy; ; Staff are all home office workers, so do not commute to waste part of the day, and have the ability to set their day around their families; ; We operate a work the hours to do the job, not a fixed work pattern, in so doing avoiding presenteeism; ; We have a mix of full and part time staff at all grades in the organisation; ; We operate a flat structure, decision making is from across the company, if staff feedback that a strategy could be improved operationally, it gets taken on board. Leadership does not impose direction, we consult with staff to set the direction.; ; By allowing staff to work from home and work the hours that suits their needs. We ensure that all age ranges, and desired work patterns are supported. Which we believe helps our staff maintain a healthy attitude to work. By giving staff a say in the direction of the organisation, we help ensure all members of staff are bought into the direction of travel of the company.
