Select socially responsible vendors for your outsourced essential services (cleaning, security and landscape).

If you do not have yet a sustainable procurement policy, see our sustainable procurement page on how to write one.

For services, prefer providers conscious of environmental and social challenges:

  • using water & energy efficient equipment
  • using eco-friendly cleaning products (see solutions Choose Green Cleaning Products in green office category)
  • training their employees on eco-friendly practices, natural resources' preservation & waste segregation
  • adopting clear human resources social engagements such as a safe work environment, inclusiveness and diversity policy, and real competencies development plans

87%

of those engaged as cleaners, labourers and related employees earn below $2,000 a month.
