our corporate responsibility

Since we were founded over 30 years ago, we have been aware of our social and environmental responsibility and that our longevity is intrinsically linked to our identity as a sustainable company. Understanding the impact of our business is both an ethical and an environmental concern, so we regularly revisit our vision to ensure that our activities are aligned with our ambitions.

As such, concrete measures concerning the well-being of our colleagues, social ethics and the reduction of the environmental impact of our operations have been in place for many years.

In line with our values, it is very important for us to demonstrate courage and integrity. To know how to question ourselves. To think ahead. To define a vision and pursue it. This is how we have built—step-by-step since the beginning—the solid foundations of a sustainable organisation. We are committed to the long term, both in terms of company strategy and operations, as well as in the relationships with customers and employees.

ethics

As a responsible company, our organisational principles should not be just theoretical but practical. To ensure this, we have developed a comprehensive Charter of Ethics. This document is essential in aligning our employees with our core values. It serves as a clear, contractual understanding for every team member, providing a common set of principles we all uphold. Our commitment to this Charter reaffirms our dedication to nurturing a workplace culture rooted in unwavering integrity, respect, and social responsibility.

 

positive impact

For a number of years now, Itecor has prioritised its concerns regarding social and environmental impact through concrete measures that are reviewed on a regular basis. These measures are supported by a systemic vision of the organisation based on the pillars of a sustainable company:

  • Professional growth: We maintain high standards for both professional and personal development, providing resources and a supportive environment for our people’s growth. Our projects are aligned with consultants’ aspirations and client objectives, ensuring mutually beneficial outcomes.
  • Diversity and inclusion: With over 19 nationalities, we embrace diversity as a key asset. Our commitment to inclusivity spans all ages, backgrounds, and genders, enhancing company culture and decision-making at all levels.
  • Knowledge Management: More than 10% of our time is dedicated to advancing our consultants’ knowledge. Through communities of practice, they share insights and skills, continually adapting and growing in expertise.
  • Workplace well-being: We prioritise work-life balance and mental health through supportive management and HR practices. Efforts include addressing workplace conflicts and ensuring dignified treatment for all employees.
  • Environmental responsibility: We implement measures to minimise our ecological footprint, promoting sustainable practices and technologies in all business aspects, from recycling our devices to supporting sustainable transport options.
  • Sustainable business: As an independent and stable organisation, we nurture ethical business practices and foster enduring relationships with all stakeholders, ensuring economic sustainability for the long term.
  • Data Protection: We commit to protecting data privacy and complying with current standards and regulations, such as GDPR and CCPA, to ensure the security and confidentiality of personal information.

These initiatives are integral to our strategy, aligning with our values and supporting our long-term commitment to people development and sustainability.
