Introduction

Dréimire Language Services is passionately dedicated to championing sustainability and preserving the environment. We acknowledge the lasting consequences of our actions and have thus incorporated numerous strategies to curtail our carbon emissions and lessen our ecological impact. This Sustainability Statement elaborates on our green efforts and the initiatives we've launched to operate in a more eco-friendly and responsible manner.

Our Commitment

Dréimire Language Services recognises that sustainability is a critical aspect of doing business. We have made a commitment to operate in a way that reduces our environmental impact, and we strive to achieve this goal every day. We believe that every business has a responsibility to contribute to environmental protection, and we have taken several steps to ensure that we do our part.

Implemented Sustainability Measures

This section outlines the measures we have already taken related to sustainability in Dréimire Language Services.

No Printing Needs and Paperless Invoicing

By going completely paperless, we have reduced our paper consumption by 95%, saving approximately 100 trees annually and significantly reducing waste. We have also eliminated the need for paper invoicing, and all our invoices are sent electronically. By doing so, we have reduced our paper usage and eliminated the need for any additional waste. 

Online Meetings and Remote Work Only

We conduct all our meetings and operations online, minimising the need for travel and reducing our carbon footprint. Our team members work from home, which eliminates the need for commuting, reducing our overall carbon emissions. This approach not only reduces our environmental impact but also promotes work-life balance and supports employee well-being.

No Catering or Food Demands

Our fully remote operation eliminates catering and food demands. Team members work from home, supported by policies that encourage healthy and eco-friendly dietary habits and are encouraged to purchase food with no packaging or if not possible, as little packaging as possible. This approach lowers our carbon emissions and minimises food waste.

Sustainable Web Hosting

Our website is hosted on servers powered by 100% carbon-neutral, environmentally-friendly hydropower, reducing our carbon footprint by 2 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually. Find more information about our web hosting here.

Manager in Charge of Sustainability

We have appointed a Sustainability Manager, responsible for overseeing and implementing our sustainability initiatives, ensuring measurable progress and transparency for stakeholders. Our manager is in the process of undertaking training in the field of sustainability to ensure appropriate measures are taken and implemented.

Future Goals

This section outlines the measures we will take related to sustainability in Dréimire Language Services.

Implement a Carbon Offset Program

Dréimire Language Services commits to offsetting 100% of its carbon emissions by investing in certified carbon offset projects, such as renewable energy or reforestation projects, starting in 2024.

We also plan to invest 1% of our profits into carbon offset projects focused on achieving the best return on investment possible.

Implement a Green Rewards Program

Dréimire Language Services will launch an innovative green rewards program in 2024, offering employees incentives for eco-friendly behaviours, such as using public transportation, reducing energy consumption, or volunteering in environmental initiatives.

Conduct a Sustainability Audit

Dréimire Language Services will engage a third-party auditor to perform an annual sustainability audit, evaluating our energy consumption, waste management, and other environmental practices, ensuring transparency and accountability for customers and other stakeholders.

Develop a sustainable employee training program

Dréimire Language Services will develop and implement a comprehensive employee training program by 2024, focusing on sustainability practices and fostering a culture of environmental responsibility among staff members.
