This week is Good Business Week, a campaign run by The Good Business Charter of which we are accredited – and proud – members.
The Good Business Charter offers a straightforward accreditation process open to organisations of various sizes in the UK, acknowledging their commitment to responsible business practices. Accredited entities encompass a diverse range, from FTSE100 companies and partnerships to local authorities, universities, SMEs, charities, and sole traders.
In order to obtain accreditation from the Good Business Charter, organisations need to satisfy the criteria for all 10 elements (9 for public or third sector). These encompass a comprehensive approach to caring for employees, suppliers, customers, and the environment, all while ensuring the fair payment of taxes.
The 10 commitments are listed below:
- Real Living Wage
- Fairer Hours and Contracts
- Employee Wellbeing
- Employee Representation
- Equality, Diversity and Inclusion
- Environmental Responsibility
- Pay Fair Tax
- Commitment to Customers
- Ethical Sourcing
- Prompt Payment to Supplier
Being Good Business Charter accredited is something that we are proud of as it helps demonstrate our commitment and dedication to doing business the right way.
