Corporate Social Responsibility
Making a Sustainable Difference
Specialist Insurance
2Vision is committed to conducting our business in a responsible and sustainable way, as it is integral to the way that we do business.
We are dedicated to behaving in a way that is beneficial to all stakeholders, clients, customers, our environment and the wider community. We recognise 5 key areas that contribute to corporate social responsibility: our customers, our people, our local communities, our suppliers and our environment.
Our Customers
We support many different types of customer by providing insurance products and solutions to meet the needs of insurance brokers along with small to medium size businesses.
We continually work to ensure that we are providing the best service for our customers, and the Financial Conduct Authority initiative ‘Treating Customers Fairly’ is core to this aim. We ensure that our communications with customers are clear, whilst we endeavour to provide products that meet their varied needs.
Our People
We respect and value the qualities that make our staff individuals and we are committed to creating a culture of inclusion and diversity.
We provide access to training for all staff, to put them in the strongest position to do their job well and fulfil their potential. Regardless of role or level, everyone at 2Vision has access to a variety of developmental opportunities to help them realise their full potential. We believe that supporting individual growth and development helps us attract and retain talented individuals.
We encourage cycling and walking to work where possible and operate a Bike2Work scheme to assist staff in funding purchases of new bicycles.
Our Local Communities
We believe in and support our local communities. We are keen to support colleagues who volunteer or fundraise for charity. We can provide time off and company support to facilitate time in the community. Matched funding on sponsorship raised is also provided at group level.
We actively support Charity work days, offering a day off with full pay for community gardening projects and the like.
Our Suppliers
Our reputation is very important to us and to help protect this, we will not knowingly conduct business with any organisation that does not share our commitment to dealing with stakeholders fairly and ethically. Our approach to procurement is based on the principles of competitive tendering and dealing with suppliers in a fair and open manner.
Our Environment
We believe in the principle of caring for the environment and strive to incorporate good environmental practice into our workplace, taking a sustainable approach to waste management and minimising our use of resources across the business.
We are focused on improving our energy efficiency, managing our wastage responsibly and reducing our carbon emissions. We operate a paperless office system and minimise business travel where possible. We have remote working facilities and have upgraded our telephone system to accommodate teleconferencing, providing a solution for home working and reducing the need for colleagues to travel for meetings.
We recognise our responsibility to do business in a manner that protects and improves the environment for our future generations.
