Our sustainability strategy covers our environmental and social impact as well as governance
Our sustainability strategy consists of the following four focus areas that cover our environmental and social impact as well as governance:
- How we contribute to a more sustainable economy in the society
- We help customers with sustainable services
- Enento Group as a sustainable workplace
- Our environmental impact.
We contribute to a more sustainable economy in our society
We are an enabler of a sustainable economy; we provide services that assist our customers on their sustainability paths and share meaningful data insights and intelligence with our customers and the public.
In 2023, we reached over 85 000 people, including young adults and their teachers, with our educational material on private economy and how to prevent over-indebtedness.
We focus at developing our ESG and compliance services
ESG (environmental, social, governance) data plays a pivotal role in driving the transformation towards a sustainable society. We focus at developing our ESG and compliance services as we expect the need for these services increase due to:
- EU’s Green Deal and the linked EU taxonomy and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD)
- growing awareness of the financial impact of climate and other ESG risks
- increased focus on reputational risks.
In 2023, we launched a carbon dioxide (CO2) calculator in Finland, a climate risk report in Sweden and the politically exposed person (PEP) and sanction list screening services in Sweden.
We reduce our environmental footprint
As a Nordic knowledge company, our most significant environmental impact comes from business travelling, employee commuting and use of IT equipment. We are determined to reduce our own environmental footprint to reach net zero emissions in 2030.
In 2023, we reached our target to become a carbon neutral company. We achieved this target by continuous work to lower our emissions from our baseline year of 2019 and by removing the remaining carbon emissions through afforestation and biochar production in collaboration with an external partner.
We are a sustainable work place
In our own operations, sustainability for us means that we are an empowering and a sustainable workplace. Well-being is important element of our company culture. Our approach to it is holistic, covering individual wellness, both mental and physical, as well as leadership, team collaboration and organizational culture. Work life balance and stress management are important parts of our well-being at work. In addition, diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging are important strategic business priorities for us.
Quality, competence and a mindset of continuous learning are important for us. Our local companies Suomen Asiakastieto Oy in Finland and UC AB in Sweden are certified according to ISO 9001 Quality Management System. In our Enento Academy learning platform, we offer digital education on strategic topics such as GDPR, Finnish and Swedish Credit Information Acts, information security and sustainability, to all employees.
In 2023, we achieved improved results in all our People strategy focus areas: Learning and Development, Employee Experience and Empowering Leadership.
