Clearview Relocation & Business Sustainability
Sustainability has always been important to us, for the past 22 years we have enjoyed working with our fantastic partners and suppliers across the globe to provide our clients with seamless relocation services wherever they might be needed and we want to continue doing that. The world is changing fast with ever increasing pressures on costs, unpredictable climate, biodiversity loss, new legislation, worker exploitation - to name just a few of the challenges we are now facing. For us to thrive and move forward we must have a positive impact and learn to take more care of the world that we live in and the wonderful people that we work with.
We cannot do this alone and that is why we are investing in building our knowledge, collaborating with our competitors, suppliers, partners, clients and the wider relocation industry, so that together we can accelerate action on sustainability
Our journey started with a Climate Agenda Workshop where we met with a group of like minded competitors to discuss our industry and the ideas and initiatives that would have a greater impact undertaken, as a group.
Carbon Footprint Standard
Clearview Relocation is proud to communicate that they have received the Carbon Footprint Standard – Reducing CO2e approval.
Carbon Footprint Ltd is a founding member of the Quality Assurance Standard (QAS) for Carbon Offsetting.
The QAS continues to give confidence to businesses and individuals that the calculation methodology being used has been independently verified and the offset project meets the highest standards available in the offsetting industry. In addition the scheme includes an audit process to verify that offset providers are following this standard and fulfilling the full offsetting obligations for their customers.
Carbon Footprint Ltd’s own Quality Management System (QMS) is certified by BSI to ISO 9001:2015 and their own Environmental Management System is certified by BSI to ISO 14001:2015.
Following on from the workshop and in line with COP 26 findings, we decided to measure our own Company emissions
To do this we utilised the services of Carbon Footprint Ltd, a founding member of the Quality Assurance Standard (QAS) for Carbon Offsetting.
The QAS continues to give confidence to businesses and individuals that the calculation methodology being used has been independently verified and the offset project meets the highest standards available in the offsetting industry. In addition the scheme includes an audit process to verify that offset providers are following this standard and fulfilling the full offsetting obligations for their customers.
We are pleased to announce that having been assessed, Clearview Relocation Ltd have offset our carbon emissions and are a certified Carbon Neutral organisation.
We chose to do this by supporting a Global Portfolio of Verified Carbon Reduction Projects
Whilst reducing the impact of greenhouse gases and offsetting our carbon footprint is a priority, sustainability itself encompasses so many other aspects.
As an employer, we support the career development of our employees whilst promoting diversity and inclusion and fostering a sense of community within the organisation. We encourage self management, a personal commitment to continuous improvement and collective conscious. We promote and nurture participation from all team members from both a personal and business perspective to help our drive towards a more sustainable future.
As an organisation, we consider people, the planet and our business practices. We are uncompromising on ethics and compliance and maintain working relationships with other like minded companies. We understand that collaboration with industry bodies, competitors and partners is crucial in our fight against vast global issues and that together we can achieve more.
To see how we were performing as a business, we undertook a further assessment by EcoVadis, a global leader in the provision of sustainability ratings.
The EcoVadis Rating covers a broad range of non-financial management aspects that include Environmental, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement impacts.
These evidence-based assessments are refined into easy to read scorecards, providing zero to one hundred (0-100) scores, and medals (bronze, silver, gold), where applicable. Their scorecards provide guidance on strengths and improvement areas, which the rated companies may use to focus their sustainability efforts and develop corrective action plans to improve their sustainability performance.
We are pleased to announce that we were awarded a Silver medal and scored in the 90th percentile.
The report has not only helped us identify areas that we can improve upon but also targets that we will strive to meet.
