Examples of Corporate Social Responsibility

Protecting the environment

Value Office Furniture recognises the importance of protecting the environment. We will promote recycling where possible and purchase sustainable products to use in our daily tasks.

We encourage all team members to be mindful of their daily practices eg printing and the reduction of the use of single use plastics.

Protecting people

We will ensure that we:

Don’t risk the health and safety of our employees and community.

Avoid impacting negatively on the lives of local and indigenous people.

Support diversity and inclusion.

Use suppliers who share our rejection of all forms of modern slavery ie slave labour, child labour and forced labour

Use suppliers who share our passion for protecting children and all vulnerable people and communities

Request our suppliers assess their own supply chain to ensure they are not unknowingly supporting any of the above practices

Request evidence from our suppliers of their due diligence in this matter, where relevant

Human rights

Value Office Furniture is dedicated to protecting human rights. We are a committed equal opportunity employer and will abide by all fair labour practices and universally acknowledged best practice as recommended by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the United Nations Global Compact . We will ensure that our activities do not directly or indirectly violate human rights in any country (e.g. slave labour, child labour or forced labor). We expect that our suppliers will also treat workers, colleagues and all key stakeholders with dignity and respect.

Proactiveness

Donations and aid

Our company preserves a budget to make monetary donations or donations in kind.

These donations will aim to:

Support charitable organisations such as Bravehearts, The Kids Cancer Council and the RSPCA

Alleviate those in need

Preserving the environment

Apart from legal obligations, our company will proactively protect the environment. Examples of relevant activities include:

Recycling

Supporting the community

Value Office Furniture will initiate and support community investment. We will provide support to non-profit organizations or movements to promote improvements in their work environment (by donating office furniture) and practices (by donating cash). We commit to utilising the services of Indigenous suppliers wherever possible.

Learning

Our company is committed to the United Nations Global Compact. We’ll readily act to promote our identity as a socially aware and responsible business. As per our usual practice this policy will be shared and reviewed by all staff at least annually in an effort to keep it fluid and relevant.
