When you engage the services of any new supplier, there are many things to consider – price, capabilities, quality, risk, the list goes on and on…
This list of considerations continues to expand, with most companies demanding a higher duty of care from their supply chain regarding environmental and social impact.
But how do you accurately assess how environmentally and socially responsible a company is when there are so many elements to consider?
From eco-consciousness to inclusion and diversity to social impact and ethical corporate governance. The data points you need to establish whether a potential vendor is truly sustainable can be numerous, wide-ranging, and overwhelming.
That’s where the B Corp movement comes in – a movement RigRun are proud to be a part of.
What being B Corp Certified means
With the ‘B’ standing for “benefit for all”, Certified B Corporations believe that earning a profit and being a force for good in the world should never be mutually exclusive. Being a part of this community demonstrates that we are taking the necessary action to ensure we positively impact people and the planet – a mentality that has been core to our business since the beginning.
To become B Corp Certified, companies must undergo a rigorous process where every aspect of the business is scrutinised against five pillars – governance, workers, community, environment and customers. With evidence required at every step, there is nowhere to hide, and the ambition to be “greener” just won’t cut it.
So much information is required that it took us two years to complete the process and become B Corp Certified. And that’s just the beginning, as B Corp Certification is not a “one-and-done” deal. To remain B Corp Certified, we must undergo the process repeatedly, with the objective of improving our score each time.
How does this help you when you’re looking to select the right wellness programme for your workforce?
B Corp Certification is a powerful symbol that tells you everything you need to know about our ESG policies and processes. It tells you that we come up to the highest, international standards and have supplied the evidence to prove it. It tells you that our commitment to people and the planet extends far beyond our eco-consciousness. And most importantly, it gives you confidence that, as part of your supply chain, we can contribute to your low-carbon future.
With all of that taken care of, you and your team can start focusing on our annual global fitness challenges. These challenges aim to improve the physical, mental, and social health of remote site workers through a wellness programme that encourages exercise, healthy habits, and increased socialising with fellow competitors.
So, if you’re looking for a workforce engagement solution that delivers on physical, mental and social health while ticking every conceivable box on your sustainability checklist, then you have come to the right place.
