Corporate Social Responsibility

Policy Brief & Purpose

Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) company policy refers to our responsibility toward our community and our environment. 

This policy outlines our efforts to give back to the world as it gives to us.

Scope

This policy applies to our company and its subsidiaries. It may also refer to suppliers and partners.

Policy Elements

We are a responsible business that meets the highest standards of ethics and professionalism.

Our company’s social responsibility falls under two categories: compliance and proactiveness. 

Compliance refers to our company’s commitment to legality and willingness to observe community values. 

Proactiveness is every initiative to promote human rights, help communities and protect our natural environment.

Our company will:

• Respect the law
• Honour its internal policies and those of our regulatory bodies 
• Ensure that all its business operations are legitimate
• Keep every partnership and collaboration open and transparent

Business Ethics

We will always conduct business with integrity and respect to human rights.

We will promote:

• Safety and fair dealing
• Respect toward the consumer
• Anti-bribery and anti-corruption practices
• Protecting the environment

Protecting people

We will ensure that we:

• Don't risk the health and safety of our employees and community.
• Support diversity and inclusion.

Human Rights

Our company is dedicated to protecting human rights. We are a committed equal opportunity employer and will abide by all related policies and practices. We will ensure that our activities do not directly or indirectly violate human rights in any country (e.g., forced labour).

Volunteering and Work Experience

Our company may sponsor volunteering events from other organisations. Details of our volunteering or fundraising will be included on our social media platforms. From time to time, we may be able to provide opportunities for work experience to help young people to gain valuable work experience. 

Preserving the Environment

Apart from legal obligations, our company will proactively protect the environment. 

Examples of relevant activities include:

1. Recycling – 90% of our waste is recycled.
2. Conserving energy and using ethical energy companies as our suppliers
3. Using environmentally friendly technologies and using paper free solutions where possible

Supporting the Community 

Our company may provide additional support to our charity of the year, which will be a small local charity or community group who may benefit from our experience, or other services at our discretion. We do not invite applications for support, instead approach organisations we have particular interest in.

We have a limit in the amount of funding, raffle prizes and other support we can provide each year, however we have a Community Notice Board which can be used to help groups advertise their causes to gain publicity. 

We will display our contribution to our chosen charities on our website each year.
