RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS PRACTICES
Championing Responsible Business with Axminster Tools
See our guest blog from Axminster Tools. Through their GBC accreditation and responsible business practice, they want to maintain a sustainable future for Axminster Tools, for the prosperity of their staff and the communities they support and engage in.
The Good Business Charter is a simple accreditation which organisations in the UK can sign up to in recognition of responsible business practices.
It measures behaviour over 10 components: real living wage, fairer hours and contracts, employee well-being, employee representation, diversity and inclusion, environmental responsibility, paying fair tax, commitment to customers, ethical sourcing, and prompt payment.
An organisation must meet all 10 commitments to receive GBC accreditation. Open to private sector, public sector and charities of all sizes including a streamlined version for organisations with 50 employees or less.
