The QS Co joins the Good Business Charter

We are excited to announce that our business has recently joined the Good Business Charter (GBC), an accreditation scheme for businesses committed to responsible and ethical practices across ten key areas.

Why We Joined the Good Business Charter

At our company, we believe that businesses have a responsibility to operate in a way that is sustainable, ethical, and socially responsible. We have always strived to uphold these values in our business practices, but joining the GBC has given us an opportunity to take our commitment to the next level.

Being a member of the GBC means that we have access to a comprehensive framework for responsible and ethical practices, covering areas such as fair pay, employee well-being, environmental sustainability, and tax transparency. By meeting the GBC’s standards, we can demonstrate to our customers, employees, and stakeholders that we are committed to operating in a way that is not only profitable but also responsible and ethical.

What Being a Member of the Good Business Charter Means for Us

Being a member of the GBC means that we are part of a community of businesses that are committed to doing business in a responsible and ethical way. This gives us access to resources, best practices, and peer support that can help us to continually improve our business practices and ensure that we are meeting the highest standards of responsible and ethical behaviour.

Joining the Good Business Charter is an important step for us as a business. By committing to responsible and ethical practices across ten key areas, we are demonstrating our commitment to doing business in a way that is not only profitable but also sustainable, ethical, and socially responsible. We are proud to be part of a community of businesses that share these values, and we look forward to continuing to work together to make a positive impact on society and the planet.
