  Fighting climate change

  Thales UK has a clear focus on fighting climate change. Thales has set itself a target of becoming a Carbon Net Zero company by 2030, powered by cleaner energy used more efficiently at our sites and for our business, with renewable energy supplies.; ; There are several strategies that Thales and our Cyber offerings implement to fight climate change, including:; ; 1) Sustainable future. Thales has put fighting climate change at the centre of its strategy, highlighted by the fact that tackling climate change is one of the 4 Thales strategic pillars. Thales Cyber security and consultancy offerings have enabled companies to develop secure and sustainable products, prevent product recalls, learn digital lessons and reduce rework that go towards meeting their strategic sustainability objectives and tackle climate change.; ; 2) Travel reduction. Thales has introduced a Smart Working model to reduce the travelling required by the workforce. One pillar of this is arranging virtual meetings with Customers, Stakeholders and interested parties. Thales has also deployed numerous tools to enable Thales UK to effectively operate via remote / smart working. It is expected that meetings under G-Cloud could implement this methodology to offer the same benefits to the customer. Running on managed services means efficient use of shared and common infrastructure, allowing sustainable collaboration from existing infrastructure, where organisations or teams may once have had dedicated infrastructure are now allowed to work remotely, securely.; ; 3) Carbon reduction. Thales strives to implement carbon reduction, through a series of targets to reduce carbon emissions annually. Smart working, championed by our Cyber Security Consultants and offerings has been a key enabler of this strategy. Additionally, services enabling secure collaboration mean that businesses do not need to procure additional new hardware, thereby having a positive environmental impact.

  Covid-19 recovery

  hales has put a clear focus on a UK-wide recovery from the Covid-19 Pandemic.; ; Throughout the pandemic, Thales UK responded as a member of the Ventilator Challenge UK consortium, which brought together companies from the Aerospace, Automotive, Medical and other sectors to deliver more than 13000 ventilators in response to the pandemic. This demonstrated that Thales UK was able and willing to mobilise its capabilities, resources and know-how, to be among the first to respond to the national emergency as an integral part of the UK’s critical national infrastructure and strategic supply chain, was formally recognised by HM government and led to an award for pandemic service.; ; Throughout and since the Covid-19 pandemic there has been a concerning rise in Cyber security threat with sector specific cyber-attacks being directed towards a number of critical infrastructure sectors. Thales’ cyber security offerings provide protection from these threats and have been provided to key services including the NHS, allowing national recovery from the pandemic. Thales Secure connectivity services and cyber consultants allow these key businesses and Critical National Infrastructure to have secure options in connecting and sharing securely with 3rd parties to recover and grow safely from the COVID 19 Pandemic.; ; In addition, Thales will continue to provide sustained and additional employment opportunities in high-skilled, high value, aspirational careers critical to national and business security that support future regional and national growth. This includes cyber specialists and consultants in regions across the UK, such as Doncaster and Ebbw Vale.
