Sustainability in Simployer
Creating impact that lasts.
Driving Sustainable Impact
At Simployer, sustainability is about making responsible choices that create long-term value for people, businesses, and society. Guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals, we focus on equality, decent work, responsible operations, and strong partnerships, areas where we believe we can make a real difference. Below, you can explore how we turn our commitments into action.
-
Gender equality
We wish to increase our positive impact on SDG 5 by being best in class when it comes to promoting equality and equal access to career development and equal pay and developing working conditions that are satisfying for both men and women. When we recruit, we focus on diversity and gender equality at all levels in the organization. Simployer will continue our efforts to ensure equal rights and opportunities for all and will strive proactively to prevent discrimination.
-
Decent work and economic growth
We strongly believe that we can achieve more by promoting and helping start-ups and students and in this way helping society to create new job openings along with economic growth. We have begun a start-up funding collaboration with our majority owner, Ferd. Ongoing initiatives include the provision of free access to a learning library to students, Freemium solutions to companies that need our services but are unable to pay for them (primarily startup companies), school visits to share our knowledge within SaaS and HR, and an apprentice programme.
-
Responsible consumption and production
We seek to reduce our negative impact on the environment by reducing unnecessary travel and purchases. We have opted to cut down on the number of gifts and gadgets for our employees and customers and to make more sustainable and reusable replacements for the occasional bouquet of flowers. In addition, we are undertaking to make our offices environmentally friendly and compliant with local waste treatment regulations and cooperating with our partner Intility to recycle and refurbish our old electronic equipment.
-
Partnerships for the goals
We strongly believe that we can achieve more by working together to reach the ambitious UN goals. For our partnerships, we seek organizations and initiatives that touch on our core goals. This year we have established a partnership with the ODA network for women in tech to strive for a more diverse and inclusive workplace. With our headquarters in Sarpsborg, Norway, we believe we can make a difference to the society where we are in, and we are proud members of Sarpsborg Næringsforening and Fredrikstad Næringsforening, which are also aiming to meet several UN sustainability goals. Partnering up means that we work towards common goals as part of the community.
