Social responsibility
At Sheffield Mutual, we are committed to conducting our business in a responsible and ethical way.
Our social responsibility...
We've been around for a long time and recognise our social responsibility not only to the environment, but to our members, the wider community and good causes.
Our approach is built on the following elements:
- Ensuring our members are at the forefront of everything we do
- Providing a working environment that is safe, inclusive and engaging for our employees
- Promoting equal opportunities and diversity in employment
- Supporting local communities and charities
- Minimising the environmental impacts of our business
Putting it into practice...
In line with our history, heritage and ethical values, we are committed to helping charities and good causes in the course of doing business.
