Promoting diversity, opportunity and equitable pay for all within SoftwareOne and our market is an essential goal of our ESG roadmap.
SoftwareOne is a global company that recognizes our impact on the planet and the people in the communities where we work. Like many organisations, we are beginning an environmental, social, and governance (ESG) journey that will transform our company. As a leader in the technology industry, we are committed to improving diversity within our workforce and senior leadership. The technology we sell and serve also requires that we act to protect the data and privacy of our customers. As we take our first steps on this journey, we commit to regularly report our progress using science-based measurements.
Humanity faces an unprecedented environmental crisis. As of 2021, climate change has warmed Earth's atmosphere by 0.85° C, creating increasingly unfavourable conditions for humans and many other species.
As a provider of technology services and distributor of technology on behalf of others, we must create an innovative approach to our ESG strategy. Our path to sustainability, social justice, and transparent business practices is a work in progress that SoftwareOne, our customers, and the industry will devise together. We pride ourselves on being an ethical organisation and believe three areas are our most significant paths to effect positive changes for the environment and society.
Promoting diversity, opportunity and equitable pay for all within SoftwareOne and our market is an essential goal of our ESG roadmap.
As a technology company, we are responsible for reducing our downstream greenhouse gas emissions and helping our clients track and reduce CO2 emissions.
Our ESG success requires us to focus on establishing and maintaining best-in-class ethics, compliance, data privacy, and cybersecurity programs.
Our teams work in 90 countries and engage with communities where our people live. We believe our diversity makes us stronger. Here are the foundations of our environmental and social efforts.
#1 We are becoming environmentally responsible at SoftwareOne, measuring and lowering our organisational carbon footprint.
#2 We are committed to cutting downstream emissions of our customers and partners by providing software and services that support their environmental impact efforts.
#3 We cultivate an inclusive, diverse, and caring space for all SoftwareOne employees.
#4 We will further the positive digital transformation of nonprofits and local communities through our SoftwareOne Impact program.
#5 We will leverage SoftwareOne's passion and its dedication to values-driven ethical business to further its ethical and compliant corporate governance practices.
The journey to sustainability will take years, and today’s accomplishments simply set the stage for the next steps. SoftwareOne is developing a comprehensive greenhouse gas emissions roadmap that builds on this progress.
