Corporate Responsibility
Being a responsible business is central to the day-to-day and future activity of Kite Glass. It has been fundamental to the success of the business since our foundation. Accordingly, we take our Corporate and Social responsibilities very seriously, broadly categorising our activity into the following three main areas:
Equality & Diversity
We are committed to providing a working environment where everyone feels valued, respected and able to happily work and contribute well without prejudice. We encourage harmony and respect and strive to achieve good working relationships that allow our people to thrive. When recruiting, we encourage applicants from a cross-section of cultural origins and gender.
Business Ethics
We clearly define and communicate rules on Business Ethics, managing relationships with our clients and suppliers during tendering, post-award contracts and day-to-day business. We aim to ensure we always act in a moral, ethical and legal way and do not compromise ourselves or others by our actions.
Environment & Sustainability
We are committed to Sustainability and minimising our impact on the Environment. We aim to operate in a way which ensures good environmental management and awareness of our responsibilities, both morally and legally. We balance the needs of the business with the need to protect our local and global environment. Our Corporate Responsibility initiatives and programmes aim to improve employee satisfaction, promote environmentally friendly products, minimise waste and to maintain the highest levels of integrity across all of our business, with our customers and suppliers alike.
