This is Glacier’s first Responsibility Report. Covering both the environmental and social aspects of our activities in 2021, it was created by our internal Team Green.

Environmental aspects

Here we measured our corporate carbon footprint. This amounts to 18 tCO2e for the period 01.01.2021 to 31.12.2021. We included Scopes 1, 2 and 3 in the calculation. In this section, we also examined our energy & electricity consumption, food & drink, offices & IT, material & waste, offsetting and finance.

We want to improve in each of these areas. That’s why we set objectives for 2022. These include office and remote work, a travel policy for business trips, more awareness of plant-based foods, a move to 100% refurbished/repaired IT products and a system to reduce lunch packaging waste.

Social aspects

Here we explored our employee profile, including data such as team growth, employment type, turnover rate, age, nationality and educational background. We also look at our organogram, the history of Team Green, diversity and gender equality, healthcare, employee benefits, education management, team events, human rights and anti-corruption.

Our objectives for 2022 include appointing a representative for LGBTQIA+ issues, including pronouns in our email signatures, targeting more mindfulness in our daily work, providing more benefits for employees (e.g. funded education, discounts, etc.) and organizing climate-related team activities and retreats.

Goals for 2022

We ultimately set ourselves the following targets for 2022:

• Set up a stakeholder dialog to properly analyze materiality
• Start a value definition process across the entire Glacier team
• Publish a new report
• Implement an impact framework for our products, so we can measure the impact we have on other companies and their employees
