About the Green Economy
Green Economy provides end-to-end support to businesses as the UK transitions to net zero.
We help businesses to decarbonise with advice, training and support that delivers long term resilience, environmental credibility and financial savings. In York we are partnered with City of York Council to provide fully-funded decarbonisation support to local businesses, helping the city to achieve its net zero target.
This project is funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund
About the Good Business Charter
The Good Business Charter was developed, and is overseen by, the Good Business Foundation, an independent charity established in 2019 by entrepreneur Julian Richer.
The Charter is a simple accreditation which organisations in the UK can sign up to in recognition of responsible business practices. It measures behaviour over ten components (nine for charities and public sector): real living wage; fairer hours and contracts; employee well-being; employee
representation; equality, diversity and inclusion; environmental responsibility; paying fair tax; commitment to customers; ethical sourcing, and prompt payment.
An organisation must meet all ten components (nine for charities and public sector) to receive GBC accreditation. It is open to private sector, public sector and charities of all sizes including a streamlined version for organisations with 50 employees or fewer.
The Good Business Charter is an initiative of the Good Business Foundation, charity number 1186547, company number 12278437. Website: www.goodbusinesscharter.com
