Driving Positive Change: Our Continued Commitment to Social Sustainability
When people talk about sustainability, it’s usually about the environment or the economy. But there’s a third piece that’s just as important: people. That’s where social sustainability comes in.
In simple terms, it’s about making sure everyone has a fair shot, safe working conditions, equal rights, and strong, connected communities. It’s a key part of big global frameworks like the UN Sustainable Development Goals and represents good ESG practice.
Social sustainability is at the heart of everything we do at Combined Safety Solutions, and we’re proud to demonstrate this through our ongoing commitments in several initiatives.
Supporting Our Communities
We give back to our community by sponsoring events, offering resources, and volunteering our time. We’re also proud to partner with ITFC Business Network, ITFC Business Network offers the Club’s partners and sponsors the opportunity to meet like-minded organisations from across the Suffolk business community. In addition to their networking events, members also receive a variety of benefits.
Joining the ITFC Business Network is one of the best networking opportunities in the region.
Fostering Fair and Inclusive Work Practices
We are committed to creating an inclusive and supportive workplace where everyone has the opportunity to grow and thrive. We uphold fair employment practices, champion diversity and equality, and ensure every team member feels valued and respected. We are also an accredited Living Wage Employer. This means we pay all our employees a wage that meets the real cost of living, not just the government minimum. By doing so, we ensure that every member of our team is fairly rewarded for their contribution and can enjoy a decent standard of living.
Training
We’re committed to creating safer, healthier, and more responsible workplaces. That’s why we provide ongoing training, mental health support, and safe working environments. As part of this commitment, we offer specialised training to both our employees and clients on key ethical and compliance issues such as anti-bribery, modern slavery awareness, and workplace safety. These programs are designed to raise awareness, strengthen industry standards, and empower individuals and organisations to always do the right thing.
Building Ethical Partnerships
We believe in doing business the right way. We collaborate with clients, suppliers, and partners who share our values and commitment to integrity, transparency, and social responsibility.
