CSR & ESG Summary

We act to ensure that we are a responsible employer and want to live our values and adopt practices to ensure responsible behaviour to all stakeholders. We recognise and manage our impact on the wider community and as an ambitious business our values and practices reflect our awareness of our responsibility to our clients, candidates, industry, and environment.

Our aim is to maintain an engaged and diverse workforce, providing development opportunities for our employees and building closer links with our local communities.

Environment

Our environment is important to us! Across the business, we promote recycling, the use of sustainable products and environmentally-friendly decision making. We strive towards being predominantly paperless; we have invested  in cloud-based systems which allows us to better protect people’s data and privacy, collaborate without boundaries, and make a difference by helping to protect our environment.

Employees

The success of our business is based on our people. We seek to recruit, retain and develop the best staff. We continually look to improve our staff through learning and coaching. As an independent company our staff are given the freedom to be creative, work autonomously and make decisions which further personalises our commitment to building a sustainable company in which we can be proud.

At Touchscreen Talent we believe that operational excellence is closely tied to the health and wellness of our staff. We are committed to promoting healthy lifestyles through our operating environment, work-life balance and life style benefits package. In doing so, we aim to have a positive impact on the wellbeing of our staff and the quality of service we offer.

Charity & Community 

As part of our Corporate Social Responsibility programme, we help and support various charities and continually seek to partner with local organisations. Working with charities is something that we whole-heartedly support. It reinforces our vision of developing beneficial partnerships, and in turn builds the skills of our teams as we experience the personal rewards of making a difference to our community. In order to offset a percentage of any Carbon produced by the business, we will cycle 1 Kilometre for every £100 that is turned over in the business. In Financial Year 2022-2023, we offset 1.63 tonnes of carbon through our efforts. We will also undertake volunteer days at the Forestry Commission to help with the conservation of the local Woodland and Wildlife.
