dotdigital receives ISO accreditation on environmental
management
dotdigital Group plc (AIM: DOTD), the leading 'SaaS' provider of
an omnichannel marketing automation and customer engagement
platform, announces that, as part of its dotgreen initiative, it
has achieved its goal of becoming carbon neutral* and has been
awarded the ISO 14001 Environmental Management certification.
ISO 14001 is an internationally agreed standard that sets out
the requirements for an environmental management system. This
certification has been implemented to monitor and continuously
improve dotdigital's environmental performance and comes shortly
after the Group was awarded the ISO 27001 accreditation, continuing
to demonstrate operational excellence against internationally
recognised standards in areas of privacy, security and
sustainability.
The dotgreen initiative, launched at the end of 2019, set out to
drive sustainability improvements throughout the organisation and
reduce the impact of its operations on the environment. Action
taken includes a global training program to educate internal
stakeholders about sustainability and introducing referral codes to
encourage staff to choose green energy suppliers for their
homes.
As part of this initiative, dotdigital has also offset its
unavoidable emissions through projects including two world-leading
clean cooking projects in Kenya and Ghana, which aim to cut carbon
emissions and reduce deforestation, while improving lives by
halving fuel bills for families and decreasing exposure to toxic
fumes. Further information on dotdigital's environmental policy can
be found in the Company's 2020 annual report and its publicly
accessible trust centre.
The Group also announces it has joined longstanding customer The
Woodland Trust as a Corporate Member, as part of its commitment to
protecting forestry in the UK.
Steve Shaw, CTO of dotdigital, commented:
"We recognise that every business needs to play its part in
combating climate change, and it was important to our staff and
customers that we led by example through the dotgreen
initiative.
Sustainability is embedded within our values and culture,
forming an important part of our long-term growth strategy, and we
are confident that we are the greenest choice of omnichannel
marketing technology for growing brands."
Darren Moorcroft, CEO Woodland Trust, commented:
"We are delighted that dotdigital have joined as a Corporate
Member of the Woodland Trust and are grateful for their funding of
GBP5,000 which will help us address both the nature and climate
crisis by protecting woods and trees UK-wide. dotdigital have been
a supplier of the Trust for five years so it's especially
heart-warming to see that our relationship will continue to grow in
different ways to support delivery of our cause."
* dotdigital has become carbon neutral in Scope 1, Scope 2, and
selected Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions (including business
travel, major cloud infrastructure providers, and data centres), as
defined by the GHG Protocol.
