  Fighting climate change

  EY is committed to fighting climate change. Our ethos is to go beyond ‘just working sustainably’ – we continuously work with governments and businesses towards a more sustainable future. We are part of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) and our environmental strategy is aligned with the UNGC environmental principles. We will implement the following for G-Cloud 14:; • Carbon neutral projects: We pledge to deliver each G-Cloud 14 project as carbon neutral. To do this, we will use our engagement carbon calculator tool. This enables us to monitor and ; reduce different impacts, e.g. travel emissions. The data from the tool also supports employee training and awareness raising on sustainable behaviours.; • Reducing our carbon footprint: In January 2020, EY announced a global commitment to become carbon neutral. We achieved this in December 2020. We became carbon negative in 2021 and we are forecast to reach net zero in FY25. We are reducing emissions and ; offsetting or removing more than the remaining amount annually. We are forecast to reduce emissions by 40% by FY25, against a FY19 baseline, consistent with our 1.5°C Science Based Target.; • Purchasing renewable energy: We confirm all work delivered for G-Cloud 14 from an EY office will be powered by 100% renewable energy. We have purchased zero-carbon electricity since 2009 and reduced global consumption by 5.5%. In December 2020, we signed a 10-year power purchase agreement with Lightsource to provide us with solar energy.; • Sustainability volunteering: In proportion to the length and size of each framework contract, we will allocate staff volunteering days to support local environmental projects. These could include litter picking and general upkeep of nature reserves and Sites of Special Scientific Interest and free advisory sessions for small community organisations caring for the environment.

  Covid-19 recovery

  EY is committed to helping our people and communities to recover from the impact of COVID-19. In response to the pandemic, we moved to a remote working model for over 17,000 UK-based staff, ; increased special leave and provided meaningful mental health support.; People in the 18-24 age group were disproportionately affected by COVID-19 and EY has worked with an independent charity, the EY Foundation (EYF), to improve opportunities for this group. In ; response to travel restrictions all EYF activities were converted to a virtual platform. In 2023, EYF supported over 2,500 young people.; Examples of existing EYF programmes to support COVID-19 recovery are shown below. We will extend these programmes for contracts awarded to us via G-Cloud 14 in proportion to the scale and scope of each contract.; • Smart Futures: A 10-month programme for young people eligible for free school meals or a college bursary. The programme develops employability skills and offers a paid, two week work experience placement. Students achieve a Chartered Management Institute (CMI) Level 2 Qualification and receive 10 months of mentoring support.; • Our Future: A six month programme for young people, qualifying for free school meals, who face barriers entering the labour market. Students develop transferable skills, receive paid work experience, gain a CMI Level 2 adult qualification and six months mentoring support. The students also take part in an ‘Entrepreneurship Day’, for example, they have designed mobile apps looking at solving social issues such as ‘tackling isolation and loneliness in the; community’.; • Support via the Neuro-Diverse Centre of Excellence (NCoE). Through EY’s UK NCoE and our external ecosystem of organisations, we are supporting a team of neurodivergent staff with additional adjustments, above and beyond our existing support, to promote; psychological safety in the office and whilst working at home.

  Tackling economic inequality

  Through our work with EYF, we have developed an in-depth understanding of the challenges experienced by those who face barriers to employment and training and/or who are in deprived areas. We are already providing new learning and employment opportunities to these populations via EYF programmes; we will extend these to G-Cloud 14 contracts in proportion with the scale and scope of each contract. Examples of these are:; • EY Ripples is our global Corporate Responsibility programme that helps our people use their skills, knowledge and experience to positively impact the lives of 1 billion people by 2030.; The focus areas of Ripples are to 'accelerate environmental sustainability', 'support the next generation workforce' and 'work with impact entrepreneurs’. Our staff currently get two days a year each to provide skilled volunteering on EY Ripples activities.; • EY Ripples also provides support to small businesses. For example, our Digital Boost programme matches a small business with an IT mentor who guides them to adopt new technology.; • EY Accelerate helps social enterprises to grow and thrive, increasing their impact on local economies and creating social change. It provides in-depth business support and mentoring, with access to skills and training from business coaches, workshops, networking opportunities and 35 hours of pro-bono support.; • Employability Workshops provide Year 10/11 students the opportunity to build knowledge of careers and develop soft skills within a business environment. Each workshop introduces 25-; 35 young people to a range of careers, employability skills training, and employer connections.; • Driving recruitment and employment via the NCoE. The Neurodivergent community can be underrepresented in the workforce, with only 29% of autistic adults in employment according; to the ONS. We are advising clients on new strategies to retain neurodiverse talent.

  Equal opportunity

  EY is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive working environment in which all people have equal and equitable opportunities to succeed. We continually collect, analyse and review diversity monitoring data (diversity characteristics, not limited to the protected ones in the Equality Act) across the employee lifecycle, to create initiatives and understand which ones are working. As a firm, in support of equal opportunities, we:; • Voluntarily exceed statutory reporting obligations. Our annual UK&I Pay Gap Report has reported on gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation and disability pay gaps since 2017.; • Use skills-based recruitment for graduates to eliminate minimum degree/A-Level requirements thus remove barriers to entry.; • Run award-winning sponsorship programmes to build our leadership pipeline, helping our women and ethnic minority population progress.; • Offer Inclusion & Belonging learning/training to develop staff skills to establish inclusive, open, and safe environments.; For contracts awarded under G-Cloud 14 we will:; • Provide equal access to project opportunities, using technology to ‘blindly’ match individuals to roles based solely on skills, experience, and availability.; • Use the National Equality Standards (NES), which EY helped to create, a set of standards by which businesses can measure their equality and diversity policies and performance. The NES provides a list of standards and competencies which organisations can follow and embed to promote diversity and act as standard bearers for a more inclusive working world.; • Use our NCoE to ramp up recruitment of people who identify with cognitive differences and who may have had challenges gaining employment. The NCoE environment provides ; additional adjustments for those with cognitive differences such as autism, ADHD, Dyslexia, and others and fuels technology innovation through creative diverse thinking.

  Wellbeing

  EY is committed to enabling our staff to be healthy. We have a long-established programme called HealthEY, which looks to understand and provide practical support for employees’ mental, physical, financial and social wellbeing. Our offering is comprehensive and aspects such as our domestic abuse support, health knowledge programme and financial wellness offerings are considered market leading. We support wellbeing for our people, clients, and communities in the following ways, and we will extend these initiatives to any G-Cloud 14 contracts that we are awarded as appropriate:; • Health knowledge and prevention: Enhancing understanding so staff can be at their best, for example: a monthly webinar programme, eLibrary, newsletters and WellPoint kiosks (to ; regularly help staff self-assess their own health metrics). Staff also get an annual wellbeing allowance, as part of their reward package, which can be spent on health and wellbeing interventions, e.g. gym memberships.; • Health sessions: We run regular exercise and yoga sessions for staff, along with regular webinars on subjects such as mental health, work/life balance and childcare.; • Mental health support: Our approach called ‘Thinking Differently’ aims to educate and build awareness of mental health and wellness, including stories/videos, a specific psychological care pathway (plus psychiatric fast track treatment through Aviva), mental health first aid, employee counselling, and Mental Health Network.; • Supporting neuro-diverse requirements: Though the NCoE, we are creating psychologically safe working environments for existing employees, new recruits, clients, and where possible, our local communities. For example, we have introduced an adapted four step recruitment process culminating in a four day ‘superweek’ work simulation which provides the opportunity to experience a working day and EY culture. This allows us to understand candidates’ needs and inform on adjustments that we may need to make to help them thrive at EY.
