Community

Continual economic regeneration is a key aspect to reversing the consistently unacceptable problems of our most deprived areas. Issues can arise with new market opportunities, developing careers, job creation or improving our service levels.

 

Investment in deprived areas can bring benefits to all companies alike and to the wider community. SureMountain believes that real business involvement is essential to turn around deprived areas and build strong and healthy communities.

 

Building a strong relationship between us and the community is important. These links have been forged through various programs and SureMountain actively promotes local community interaction, including:

 

  • Supporting local sport.
  • Supporting local educational initiatives.
  • Contributing to a variety of good causes.

Competitiveness

We encourage responsible business practices that deliver success to help secure a better quality of life for everyone.

 

SureMountain assesses the wider range of stakeholder interests to ensure a strategic direction that is competitively viable. We work hard to understand the potential risks and opportunities for the business, while offering wider social and environmental gains.

 

Emphasis is placed on a number of key issues and how they can be managed to help improve key relationships with employees, clients and other stakeholders.

Supply Chain

Given the potentially large environmental impact of our raw materials, it is important to manage the supply chain in a sustainable way.

 

We engage with our supply chain including logistics and distribution to bring about lasting and positive change. SureMountain also works with the supply chain on important issues such as site waste, recycling, packaging and logistical requirements.

 

SureMountain has many long-standing relationships within our supplier network and endeavours to operate in partnership with our suppliers to help them work towards far-reaching sustainability policies.

Workplace

Employees are one of the key stakeholders for any business and nothing is different with SureMountain. Many employees expect companies to demonstrate a positive social responsibility record through progressive employment practices as well as through their organisational behaviour and we do so.

 

SureMountain engages with the wider society in which we operate and tackles issues of concern to our workforce. The one thing, which unites the SureMountain Team, is the need to attract and retain the best people.

 

Developing a close working relationship between employer and employees is the key to developing trust and longevity. We have created an environment where employee contributions are valued, providing the ideal circumstances for each individual to achieve their full potential.

We encourage our employees to provide feedback to our organisation through the following parameters:

 

  • Quality.
  • Managerial Competency.
  • Training and Development.
  • Performance Structures.
  • Job Satisfaction. /li>

Workplace Diversity

We are continually working on ways to improve the profile of our workforce diversity as an Equal Opportunities employer. We wish to foster a working environment in which employees are treated with courtesy, dignity and respect. The opportunities available are based solely on ability and skills. Equality within the workplace also means treating people as we would want to be treated ourselves.

 

Our equal opportunities objectives include the following:

 

  • The development of skills regardless of sex, marital status, ethnic or national origin, nationality, colour, race, religious belief, political opinion, spent convictions, disability, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, age, part-time working or any other non-job related consideration.
  • To appoint and promote people based only on merit.
  • To make sure all employees have equal opportunity to develop and progress within SureMountain.
  • To ensure that no-one’s conditions of employment, contracting and pay discriminates against them.
  • To comply with employment law relating to equal opportunities.
