EXTRA STUFF WE DO

Here at Energy B2B we realise that our business does not exist in isolation. We are responsible to our clients, employees, suppliers and local community – all of whom are affected by us and what we do.

Therefore, we take all of this into account. For us, it isn’t about following a trend or being expected to operate a Corporate Social Responsibility Policy. We have one but we believe it’s more than that.  It’s about what’s right, it’s about matching our values as individuals with those of the company and following the simple principle that we can use whatever we’ve got to help and assist others.

Supporting our Community

Every member of Energy B2B team works hard to support and assist others wherever we can. Here are just a few examples:

• • • Our current supported  charities are:
      • The Principle Children’s Trust
      • North Yorkshire Youth
      • Labradors In Need
    • We’ve donated approximately 50 pints of blood to date and  are Apherisis donors of plasma and white blood cells.
    • We are ‘Dementia Friendly’ and encourage other businesses to attend dementia awareness training.
    • We previously fund raised for and founded a local branch of The Haemophilia Society, enabling the establishment of a Regional Haemophilia Centre.
    • We have previously run a local branch of P.H.A.B.
    • We always buy from local suppliers and pay all invoices within 5 days.

Supporting our Environment

• • The Energy B2B office is specifically sited out of town to reduce congestion, journey times and parking fees for staff.
  • Even though we are a small business, everything that can be recycled is and we do not waste unnecessarily.
  • All mobile phones, unused PC’s or laptops and old office equipment is recycled or given away to worthy causes.

Ethics Statement

All Energy B2B employees must act honestly, openly, fairly and in accordance with the law. We must treat each other, customers and suppliers with respect and always act in the best interests of the business.

At Energy B2B we do not tolerate, permit or engage in bribery, corruption, improper payments or unethical practices of any kind. Any concerns or further advice should be sought from Sharon Malone or Andy Hopkinson. More information on ethics is available from the Institute of Business Ethics.
