Our goal is to have a set of management tools, business principles, policies, and a governance structure in place that are in line with, or exceed, the standards set for our industry, and that enable accountability for all elements of our sustainability framework.
Because of the nature of our business, our impact on the environment is far less than that of some other sectors, such as manufacturing. Almost all of our business is conducted in local markets, and we have many locations close to both clients and candidates, greatly reducing travel and the resulting CO2 emissions. Despite this inherently minimal impact, we do what we can to limit our ecological footprint. We do so by conserving energy, by using sustainable energy sources, and reducing water and paper usage, and while re-useing or recycling wherever possible.
The purpose of this policy is to define common shared rules within Randstad for identifying corporate citizenship and philanthropy initiatives which, in line with our mission, core values, business principles and internal policies, are aimed at meeting the needs of communities or societies in which Randstad operates.
