Fidessa by its nature as a software product and services group has a minor environmental impact. However Fidessa recognises and accepts its corporate responsibilities towards the environment, its employees, and the local communities in which it operates as well as the wider global community.

The Group naturally meets all legal and regulatory requirements, considering them as minimum acceptable standards, to be exceeded wherever practical.

Fidessa is committed to a continuous improvement culture led by the Operations Director, responsible for our environmental policy and its implementation, who actively looks for cost-effective ways of monitoring our environmental impact.

We focus on:

	Reducing the waste we produce, encouraging recycling particularly in the use of paper, electrical and electronic equipment
	Taking reasonable steps to ensure that we purchase supplies from reputable sources who have appropriate policies and practices
	Disposing of waste in an environmentally sensitive manner
	Adopting energy efficient practices wherever possible

We expect our employees to act in a socially responsible fashion at all times. Our approach to our employees is to:

	Provide fairness and equal opportunities in practice
	Take an active approach to our employees’ training and development needs including raising and maintaining awareness of our policies
	Reward and recognise everyone's contribution to our success
	Ensure good conditions of employment and career progression
	Incorporate environmental issues into employee health and safety training
	Raise and maintain employee awareness of this policy and ensuing practices
	Encourage our employees to participate in initiatives that positively influence the local, national or global environment

We have adopted a code of conduct including a code of ethics that encourages our employees to follow principles of good business and social behaviour. This is published to all employees and is available to outside organisations.

We participate in and support the local communities where we work, as we believe this benefits Fidessa as well as the local communities.
