Maatschappelijk verantwoord ondernemen
Een sterke betrokkenheid bij de lokale gemeenschap is een eigenschap die vervlochten is met onze gehele organisatie - dit kan zich openbaren in onze hands-on hulp voor mensen die getroffen zijn door de verwoestende aardbeving in Japan, onze steun aan de North Bondi Life Saving Club in Australië, of één van onze vele milieumaatregelen die wij op lokaal en globaal niveau nemen.
Maar ons Maatschappelijk Verantwoord Ondernemen (MVO) gaat over meer dan alleen het ondersteunen van anderen - het gaat ook om het ondersteunen en ontwikkelen van onze eigen medewerkers. Met onze (interne) opleidingen helpen wij onze mensen zich te ontwikkelen tot de beste professionals. Wij zijn trots op het feit dat de meerderheid van onze senior medewerkers begonnen zijn als junior. Lees ons volledige MVO-verslag hier.
Onderstaand een selectie van de goede doelen die wij steunen en wat wij hebben kunnen bijdragen:
