Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a concept whereby organisations consider the interests of society by taking responsibility for the impact of their activities on customers, employees, shareholders, communities and the environment in all aspects of their operations. This obligation is seen to extend beyond the statutory obligation to comply with legislation and sees organisations voluntarily taking further steps to improve the quality of life for employees and their families as well as for the local community and society at large.

At Recruitment Matters we are taking CSR seriously. We racked our brains as to how we could play our part in taking our responsibilities sincerely and make a positive difference to the environment too. As much as we all try here to run a paperless office and don’t print brochures or send many letters, we recognised that we use a huge amount of paper giving delegates on training courses handouts and manuals – 60 pages plus cardboard covers on our  HeadHunting training course as an example. Therefore, we are now working with The CarbonNeutral Company  to plant a tree for every course we run. That’s upwards of 300 trees a year!  We are also open to offering speaking engagements for good causes free of charge (travel expenses may be charged depending on location).

Why not write and let us know what you and your company are doing to play your part in CSR and we will feature you in our monthly newsletter (it’s via email of course!). Please email info@recruitmentmatters.com.
