Sustainability & ESG

To help make NFON more sustainable we have set sustainability objectives and measures. Let’s take a closer look.

Sustainability

… is the ability to operate over the long term without harming the environment, social conditions or economic opportunities for future generations. It is a more general term that refers to general lifestyles and the way we use resources.

Environmental Social Governance

… short ESG – assess the environmental and social impact and how a company is managed. It is an analytic approach that uses data to evaluate companies against E, S, and G related risks and opportunities. Therefore helping companies to stay on track with their goals.

“Sustainability is a crucial component of our corporate strategy, and we are dedicated to make sustainability front and center in our way of working.”

Environmental

 

We ensure that NFON has a positive impact on the planet. Every day.

  • Emissions: We want to become net zero by 2025. To reach that goal we are constantly working on reducing our greenhouse gas emissions as well as compensating them. Additionally we are planning our travel time and business trips efficiently. If we need to travel, we do all domestic traveling by rail.
  • Energy: At NFON we are reducing our energy consumption and using only renewable energy across our offices in Europe. But we are not stopping there. All NFON data centers use renewable energy.
  • Waste: With our cloud-based services we help companies use fewer physical PBXs for their communication. We also check and disclose the circular economy of suppliers in the course of social supply chain management. And once our own equipment is outdated we pass it on to clubs and schools.
Environmental Objectives
Social

 

We build and maintain a place where we all enjoy being and growing. Not only for our employees, but also for all communities that work with us. 

  • Employee satisfaction: We want to achieve an employee satisfaction rate of 80% by 2025, by offering many benefits, like hybrid working, sabbatical or educational leave, and many more.
  • Family friendliness: We want to create a working environment for our employees, where they can achieve a good balance between work and family. Therefore we offer children’s sick days and kindergarten subsidies.
  • Remuneration policy: Our employees receive the same pay for the same work. We pay fair and competitive salaries. There are no structural salary differences.
  • Diversity: We pursue the goal of filling every position with the best possible expertise. At the same time we are promoting our employees in the best possible way.
  • Occupational safety: The physical and mental health of our employees is very important to us. To maintain and promote both we offer beneficial seminars on reducing stress, discounts to fitness studios and open consultation hours.
