ESG | Eque2

Advancing a Sustainable Future

In recent years, all industries have been compelled to assess their role and responsibilities to tackle Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues.

Eque2 recognises the significance of ESG in both our own and our clients’ business performance, and we are committed to being part of the solution in the transition to a more sustainable world.

Message from Justin Moule, CEO

I am immensely proud of the hard work and commitment of every member of the Eque2 team, as well as the ongoing support of our partners and customers. Commitments to policies that satisfy environmental, social and governance criteria only deliver the best results when they are fully embraced by an organisation. The worldwide economy is emerging from decades of corporate social responsibility growth and into a space where ESG commitments are becoming expected, required, and fundamental in creating long-term sustainable value, while driving positive outcomes for business, society and the planet. Our stakeholders are our advocates and enablers for sustainable change and together we will push further and faster, together.

Our commitment to ESG

Environmental

To prevent global temperatures from exceeding 1.5°C, global greenhouse gas emissions need to be halved by 2030. The race to net-zero is on, and all organisations have a responsibility to take a leadership role in the transition to a low carbon economy. This year we have taken our first steps to minimise our impact, conducting a baseline assessment of our Scope 1, 2 and partial Scope 3 emissions, and setting reduction targets.

Social

According to UK mental health charity Mind, at least 1 in 6 workers experience mental health problems. We take our responsibility to care for our employees seriously and promoting awareness and open conversation is critical to good mental health in the workplace. Visit our Careers page to learn about the range of ways we commit to looking after our people.

Governance

Eque2’s reputation as an ethical and responsible business is upheld by our strict governance practices. We have stringent systems, policies and processes in place to ensure that our business adheres to and maintains the highest standards of corporate responsibility. We also continuously strive to improve our practices, staying abreast of market and legislative changes and maintaining compliance.

To demonstrate our contribution to each, we have contextualised our commitment to the global goals through the actions and targets shown here.
