Our ESG commitment

It's our responsibility to leave the world better than we found it. We are determined to drive sustainable innovation in all areas of our business.

Environmental Sustainability

We're taking decisive action to reduce our environmental impact by implementing a responsible and measurable digital supply chain focused on reducing our carbon usage scope 3 across the business. By 2023, our goal is to improve upon our 2022 baseline by an ambitious 10%. In addition, we're partnering with corporate charities to preserve biodiversity, improve air and water quality, and combat deforestation. Through our green procurement policies and effective waste management, we're making strides toward achieving our environmental sustainability goals across our global offices.

At Orbus Software, we prioritize the people and communities in which we operate. We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace and have implemented gender, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ inclusivity initiatives. Our employee engagement programs are designed to nurture our people and promote a positive workplace culture. We are also committed to data protection and privacy, community involvement, and upholding human rights and labor standards.

Corporate Governance

We believe in transparent and ethical business practices and are committed to adhering to policies, principles, and procedures governing leadership, board composition, executive compensation, audit committee structure, shareholder rights, bribery, lobbying, political contributions, and whistleblower programs. We are implementing internal controls to ensure that we maintain the highest standards of corporate governance at all levels and enable us to deliver long-term value to our stakeholders.
