Our responsibilities

Values and responsibility

We are in the business of environmental services. To us, environmental responsibility and sustainable development are not simply a corporate strategy; they are also our livelihood.

Through initiatives in the workplace, marketplace, community and environment, our goal is to transform attitudes towards waste – and transform waste into a resource.

Our efforts were recently rewarded with a Silver rating in the Business in the Community Corporate Responsibility (Private) Index. This is a fantastic achievement and an acknowledgement of the array of community, environmental, social and employee initiatives that we have introduced across the business.



We have been recently recognised by BitC Northern Ireland for our inclusive approach to employing migrant workers - read the full case study here (we are Page 8).

We have also recently been awarded the prestigious Carbon Trust Standard; we are proud to be the largest recycling and waste management company in the UK to receive this award. To find out more, please look through the links below or email us at cr@veolia.co.uk.
