Our vision
For over 25 years, our engineers have been committed to sustainable operations – reducing waste related to IT components, optimising our energy consumption, and innovating for more efficient data centres. In addition to our frugal design principles, we believe innovations in IT will help reduce our environmental impact.
Purpose
The purpose of this policy is to manage Firstserv’s activities to prevent or mitigate harmful effects on natural resources, the ecosystem or nature through continual improvement and reduction of our environmental impact. We will strive to influence others to do the same and increase employee awareness through training.
As a infrastructure provider we maintain strong, long-term relationships with our suppliers, as well as the leading technology companies. This helps ensure we optimise our industrialisation and manage our environmental impact every step of the way. Our legacy is to think differently, act differently. At Firstserv, our goal is to liberate the cloud, so it's not only accessible and affordable, but also frugal and low carbon.
In addition, we believe that IT is part of the solution for global environmental challenges we are facing and as a cloud provider we have a responsibility to lead the way to more efficient technologies.
Scope
This policy applies to all Firstserv employees in the UK, visitors, or contractors on Firstserv premises and all interested parties.
