ESG policy
Unlimited is committed to Enviromental, Social and Governance principles. This ESG Policy is embedded into all our Agencies’ culture and Unlimited strives to have a positve impact in this area.
Corporate Environmental Responsibility
Unlimited is committed to developing a culture of corporate environmental responsibility which involves the following:
As a professional services firm which operates within the marketing communications sector, our impact on the environment is less significant than that of companies operating in some other sectors. With Unlimited’s focus on digital media, the need for consumable items such as paper, plastic and inks reduces.
Unlimited actively seeks to minimise adverse environmental impacts and to promote good environmental practices wherever possible. Some of our initiatives include:
Climate change and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
Energy Efficiency
Recycling & Single Use Plastics
Employee relations and Diversity
Unlimited’s people are at the heart of what makes it great. Diverse creativity comes from diversity of employees and happy employees. Unlimited is committed to diversity and has a dedicated Diversity Committee. The HR team ensures that new job opportunities are made available to existing employees as well as to outside applicants and that all employees are able to benefit from training, career development and promotion opportunities where appropriate. The recruitment of new personnel is made without prejudice and Unlimited believes in equal opportunity and encourages diversity (this is detailed in the Equal Opportunities and Diversity & Inclusion policies). Unlimited does not discriminate and employees advance on merit only.
Health & Safety
The health and safety of Unlimited’s employees and clients or suppliers who work on our premises is paramount. We believe that our people are our greatest asset. Due to the nature of the business, risk of work-based accidents is low. However, Unlimited takes its responsibilities for the health and safety of its employees seriously. Each location has an appointed individual who is responsible for maintaining a safe environment for employees, guided by the Unlimited Health & Safety policy. Unlimited also has trained fire marshalls and first aiders. Where work-related activities take place which have a higher risk attached – such as travel, marketing events and outdoor activities – additional planning is undertaken which includes a risk assessment and mitigation plan. Unlimited employees are required to undertake annual e-learning health and safety training.
Apprenticeships
Unlimited has set up apprenticeship, internship and graduate academy schemes to provide employment and work experience opportunities for younger people from a variety of backgrounds throughout its Agencies.
Human rights
Unlimited supports human rights and encourages employees and suppliers to do the same.
Working conditions, including slavery and child labour
Unlimited maintains a full Anti-Slavery policy in compliance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and publishes an annual statement on its website, available here https://www.unlimitedgroup.com/anti-slavery/. Unlimited also has a no child labour policy which is incorporated in its employee handbook.
Charities
Unlimited supports local communities and charitable organisations through direct fundraising, donation and pro-bono work.
Ethics and corporate responsibility
Unlimited carries out its business in a fair, honest and open manner, ensuring that it complies with all relevant laws and regulations. Unlimited has specific policies on fraud, bribery and whistleblowing which are incorporated into each Agency’s employee handbook and compliance with these policies is monitored.
Through all our interaction with our clients and suppliers we ensure that we treat them fairly and openly whilst abiding by the terms of contracts and relevant law.
Fraud
Whilst Unlimited cannot guarantee to prevent fraud, the internal control framework in place reduces the likelihood of fraud arising. Unlimited also ensures that all Unlimited employees are aware of the whistleblowing policy, contained in each operating company’s employee handbook, should any individual become aware of any incidence of fraud.
Bribery & Corruption
Unlimited does not tolerate bribery. Unlimited has strict anti-bribery policies in compliance with the UK Bribery Act 2010 which are made available to all employees and suppliers are required to adhere to them. Unlimited employees are required to undertake annual e-learning anti-bribery training.
Political Lobbying
Unlimited does not engage in political lobbying.
