Inter Relocation Receives Silver EcoVadis Rating
We’re thrilled to announce that Inter Relocation has received a Silver EcoVadis rating.
The award recognizes our commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices, including initiatives to reduce energy consumption and promote eco-friendly transportation.
Our efforts include:
- At Inter Relocation, we prioritize the well-being of our employees and the environment. To achieve this, we have implemented various policies and practices to create a flexible and inclusive workplace.
- We offer remote work options and flexi-time to allow our employees to maintain a work-life balance that suits their needs.
- We also conduct awareness training regarding diversity, discrimination, and harassment to ensure that all employees feel respected and valued in the workplace.
- As part of our commitment to excellence, we regularly assess the performance of our employees at least once a year. This helps us identify areas for improvement and provide support and training to help our employees achieve their goals.
- We also recognize the importance of protecting the environment and reducing our carbon emissions. To achieve this, we have invested in a fleet of electric vehicles that are used for local transportation of our employees around the city.
- We have also implemented a recycling program for cardboard boxes, ink cartridges, and other office waste. This allows us to reuse these materials instead of throwing them away, reducing the waste sent to landfills and minimizing our impact on the environment.
- At Inter Relocation, we uphold a standard policy on a majority of labor or human rights issues.
We are committed to treating all employees fairly and equally, regardless of their gender, race, religion, or any other characteristic. By implementing these policies and practices, we strive to create a workplace that is flexible, inclusive, and environmentally responsible.
Our company owner Stuart McAlister says, “Achieving a silver EcoVadis rating is a major milestone for any company. It demonstrates a commitment to sustainability and a willingness to take the necessary steps to improve and protect the environment.”
What is the EcoVadis Rating?
The EcoVadis Rating is a global rating platform that provides companies with an independent assessment of their environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance. The rating is based on a company’s performance across 21 CSR criteria, including climate change mitigation, water stewardship, human rights management and labour practices.
Companies are rated on a scale from Bronze to Platinum:
- Bronze EcoVadis Rating: The company has demonstrated some commitment towards sustainability with good progress in some areas but room for improvement in others
- Silver EcoVadis Rating: The company has made significant progress towards sustainability by addressing most issues raised during the previous assessment period or by addressing new issues raised within this period.
Why is the Silver EcoVadis Rating Important to us?
The EcoVadis rating is an important indicator of a company’s commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices. It helps customers, investors, and other stakeholders understand a company’s commitment to sustainability. It also helps companies track their progress over time.
Inter Relocation’s Commitment to Sustainability
At Inter Relocation, we are committed to sustainable business practices and responsible environmental stewardship. Our goal is to reduce our carbon footprint by using green technologies, reducing energy consumption and promoting eco-friendly transportation options.
We also support local communities through donations of used furniture, clothing and other household items that would otherwise be thrown away by those who move with us.
Our Team’s Hard Work and Dedication
This is an important milestone for us, and we want to thank our team members who have worked so hard to make this happen.
Our commitment to environmental sustainability goes beyond what is required by law or regulation. We strive for continuous improvement in all areas related to our impact on the planet, including energy use, waste management and recycling programs, water conservation efforts and more.
Our goal is always zero waste disposal through recycling or composting whenever possible; however there are times when disposing of certain materials cannot be avoided (such as hazardous materials). In these cases we ensure proper disposal occurs at certified facilities so they don’t end up harming people or animals in landfills where they could leach into groundwater supplies over time.”
What’s Next?
As a company, we’re committed to continuing our efforts to prioritize sustainability in all aspects of our operations. We want to monitor our progress over time and expand our initiatives to reduce our environmental impact. Our goal is not only to achieve an overall silver rating from EcoVadis but also get individual scores for each area they evaluate-including energy efficiency, waste management, water usage and more.
We’re proud to have received a Silver EcoVadis rating, which recognizes our commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices. We would like to thank EcoVadis for this recognition, as well as all of our clients who have helped us achieve it by choosing Inter Relocation for their relocation needs.
