Fighting climate change

EcoOnline’s business impact opportunities are driven by our innovative solutions and how they can accelerate and improve our customers’ sustainability performance. Yearly, our reporting systems plays a crucial role in helping businesses conduct, track and manage millions of risk assessments and incidents. With the result that thousands of organizations can implement corrective actions, improve safety protocols, and create a safer working environment for their employees.

Through our sustainability management software, our clients are able to reduce their carbon footprint with precise, auditable data, enabling informed decision-making. And stay ahead of emissions regulations, ensuring compliance from today into the future.

In addition, the chemicals safety tools and solutions play a vital role in combating climate change by enabling companies to reduce the use of hazardous chemicals, minimize emissions, and promote responsible chemical handling practices.

Tackling economic inequality

To address economic inequality, EcoOnline implements various mechanisms aimed at ensuring fair wages across all the markets in which we operate. We are committed to upholding a minimum wage standard that exceeds local requirements, thereby promoting economic stability and equity within our workforce. By providing competitive compensation packages and adhering to stringent wage standards, we aim to mitigate economic disparities and foster a more inclusive workplace environment. Additionally, we actively engage in initiatives and partnerships that support economic empowerment and upliftment, contributing to broader efforts to combat economic inequality on both local and global scales.

Equal opportunity

Our goal in EcoOnline is to leverage diversity, so that we can enhance performance, increase innovation and creativity, and achieve our sustainability goals together.
Over the past year, EcoOnline has witnessed a remarkable stride towards gender equality and inclusivity within our workforce. In 2022, women represented 39% of our total full-time equivalent (FTE) employees, but by the end of 2023, this figure increased to an impressive 42%, marking a significant step towards narrowing the gender gap. Notably, within our extended management group, the representation of women also saw a notable uptick, climbing from 29% in 2022 to 40% in 2023. These positive developments underscore our commitment to fostering a diverse and equitable workplace culture, where everyone has equal opportunities to thrive and contribute to our shared success.

Nonetheless, we see that there is still room for improvement in terms of gender diversity. As a SaaS business operating in a global market, EcoOnline recognizes the challenges of recruiting women in traditionally male-dominated occupations, such as sales, product, and technology development. Throughout 2024 we will actively continue working towards gender equality within our business, striving to equalize the proportion of men-to-women in our workforce. We remain mindful of our desire to increase our diversity by hiring more women and underrepresented groups in the technology industry.

We have a zero-tolerance policy towards discrimination, we have an Equal Opportunity Policy committing to providing equal opportunities for all employees, workers, and job applicants, and to eliminating unlawful and unfair discrimination
