1. Environmental
Creating positive impact on the environment
Our Goal: Reaching science-based reduction targets by 2030
With over 200 colleagues working in 6 locations around the globe we believe that we can make a real contribution to climate protection. Because how we act matters.
Our strategy: We reduce emissions from our office operations and business travel
Our reduction roadmap:
We commit to reaching science-based targets by 2030 by reducing greenhouse gas emissions in our key operation areas, eventually working towards Net-Zero.
Calculating our Corporate Carbon Footprint for our base year 2019 showed that business travel is our largest emission source. As a people-focused business this is no surprise. We will 100% keep our highly valued client relations and we will continue to meet our clients, but we will travel consciously and evaluate trips carefully.
2. Social
Creating positive impact on society
As a people business, social issues have always been close to our hearts at BGC. That is why we place great emphasis on social initiatives to do our part and make a positive impact on society. Our social initiatives range from pro bono projects for non-profit organizations and startup mentoring to local initiatives, corporate volunteering and global donations.
3. Governance
Creating positive impact through ethical and transparent business behavior
At Bak Global Consulting (BGC) , we are aware of our responsibility as a business and therefore see good corporate governance as an important topic. To this end, we have committed to publishing an annual ESG report and we are developing our ESG strategy, laying the foundation for our future direction here. To make our ESG performance measurable, we set quantitative targets and participate in ESG ratings such as EcoVadis. In our most recent EcoVadis scorecard, we were awarded a bronze medal for our commitment.
