SoftServe Lowers Direct Emissions  

SoftServe reduced the number of direct emissions from the production of goods by 55.4% compared to the previous year. 

The digital authority and consulting company also introduced a new approach to environmental management and set environmental goals by 2031. These goals include becoming a zero-carbon business, achieving zero waste, designing environmentally sustainable offices, and developing IT solutions to help meet environmental challenges.

Details were released in its sustainability report for 2021. Prepared in accordance with GRI standards, the report highlights SoftServe’s commitment to sustainability practices as a dedicated member of the United Nations Global Compact. 

“SoftServe’s mission is to empower talented people to change the world,” said Chris Baker, CEO, in a statement. “We stay committed to that mission by making our clients successful, developing our teams and ourselves while innovating every day. This Sustainability Report reflects our ongoing commitment to bringing a sustainable future to our clients, associates, and communities.”

SoftServe maintains five cross-functional sustainability councils overseeing individual CSR initiatives. Each council consists of contributors from specific business groups and is overseen by a chairperson and an executive sponsor to ensure effective decision-making processes. As many as 70 leaders throughout the organization are engaged in councils and contribute their efforts to building sustainable practices and scaling impact across the business.
