Fighting climate change

Jumar makes its carbon reduction plan available on its website, which details its Scope 1,2 and 3 emissions measured in line with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol – along with aspirations and targets for carbon reduction and net zero. Following a post-Covid re-evaluation period, the company has a target to reduce emissions by 10% per year (from a 2019 baseline) over the coming 10 years, and initiatives to achieve this form part of the plan. They include a switch to 100% renewable electricity and gas, which has taken place in the last 12 months, a reduction in emissions from commuting and business travel, and a further increase in recycling and low-emission waste disposal. Environmental measures are included within the company’s independently audited social value measurement tool, in line with the widely recognised National TOMs framework. Staff engagement is achieved through the formation of a Social Value Committee, which has environmental initiatives as a core topic. Jumar has taken the strategic decision to commence ISO14001 accreditation in calendar year 2022, and is already a signatory to the SME climate Hub.

Covid-19 recovery

During the pandemic, Jumar identified that there were many professionals that were looking to retrain or upskill into fields including IT. As Jumar has a highly skilled workforce, apprenticeship schemes were set up to attract near-skilled professionals and those wanting to retrain, therefore providing wider job opportunities. Vulnerable individuals were (and still are) provided with all necessary support – and the workforce as a whole are able to benefit from a flexible hybrid working model to ensure staff maintain a comfortable level of safety. Regular guidance and communication on distancing and PPE requirements are provided, and necessary modifications to the ergonomic environment are made. Further to this, a range of physical and mental wellbeing programmes, developed during the pandemic, continue to form part of the business. This includes private healthcare, which reduces demand on public services and provides specialist appointments, subsidised gym and occupational therapy, along with mental health cover supported by Jumar’s investment in mental health first aiders across its business. Jumar continues to work closely with its clients and stakeholders regarding new ways of delivering services, and has provided complimentary training on collaborative cloud technologies and, and as a cloud technology provider itself, is constantly seeking and analysing new, secure and innovative ways of collaborating.

Tackling economic inequality

As a business that works across a wide range of levels in a broad spectrum of businesses, Jumar recognises that access to opportunities can vary considerably due to a number of external factors. Tackling barriers to employment, has been a long-held belief of Jumar, and we have a highly successful track record spanning more than a decade or working with local communities to improve access to skilled career opportunities. This includes running programmes in schools to increase confidence among students, provision of mentoring and mock interviews, STEM ambassadors and donating equipment to schools. Of particular note, is Jumar’s success in employing apprentices to ensure opportunities are available to the widest demographic, with a significant retention and development rate. The largest portion of our SLEV comes from employment in the local area, which contains a varied mix of economic backgrounds. The supply chain is monitored as part of Jumar’s implementation of the National TOMs framework, which enables a diverse and resilient supplier base both in terms of location, but also size (e.g. comparing spend across SMEs, large business and smaller, specialised providers). Our supplier-friendly, but robust ‘responsible procurement’ process ensures that risks (e.g. security, modern slavery etc) are managed in the supply chain while maintaining quality and value.

Equal opportunity

Jumar’s Diversity and Inclusion policy sets out its commitment to providing supportive and inclusive culture which promotes diversity and has a zero-tolerance approach to discrimination. The policy covers all groups that may experience inequality, and is overseen by Jumar’s HR department, which reports regularly on the workforce demographic. This is underpinned by a range of activities to promote the IT sector (and industry in general) to under-represented groups, and tackle workforce inequality. For example, the company takes an active involvement in groups that support the attraction of women into otherwise male-dominated roles, and a number of its staff also provide consultancy, technical and business advice to a VCSE which aims to inspire under-represented ethnic groups into a range of careers. Jumar is also signed up to the Disability Confident Level 1 scheme.

Wellbeing

Jumar has long put the wellbeing of its staff and stakeholders at the forefront of its activities. Beyond the provision of medical insurance and employee benefit packages, the company has proactively invested in initiatives including free access to a nutritionist, free fruit in the workplace, regular personal training sessions, health assessment and massage sessions. This has been underpinned by a strong focus on mental health, with regular communication, drop-in sessions and advice from the company’s qualified mental health first aid team. The company’s hybrid working model, with much collaboration taking place on cloud technologies contributes both to the wellbeing of the workforce, but also drives the company to understand the collaboration and wellbeing requirements of its clients and suppliers This is a significant factor in the design of projects and outcomes to ensure that the wellbeing of all stakeholders across the wider community is considered.
