We operate in a highly regulated industry, and we meet or exceed the highest standards of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors demanded by the MHRA. CSI is proud to have been given a Silver Medal for Sustainability by EcoVadis, an award achieved by only the top 25% of more than half a million companies evaluated.
We are proud of the diversity of our team: 60% of our workforce are women, we are multicultural, multi-faith, speak a dozen languages and celebrate and respect our differences. We have implemented wide-ranging initiatives to ensure fair and equitable treatment for all people and the inclusion of everyone.
All of our facilities, including offices and warehouses, are contracted from best-in-class service providers, which we also select based on their ESG performance and commitment (e.g. they meet Class A standards). Our suppliers, including pharmaceutical and logistical companies, are primarily large multinational companies, which we also select based on their focus on sustainability. Our clients are primarily large, listed, global companies with clearly defined ESG policies and targets.

Our green plan: an introduction

The global climate crisis and air pollution levels constitute a public health emergency as both have serious consequences for individuals and communities, with disadvantaged and vulnerable populations being disproportionately affected, worsening health inequalities.
In the United Kingdom, the Government, local authorities, and other legislative bodies are now increasingly focusing attention on this issue, and the Climate Change Act 2008 legally compels us to take action.

CSI’s engagement strategy

To inform our Green Plan, we listened to and engaged with our staff and stakeholders. As a result of our learnings, we have:

Created a Green Committee, consisting of a senior management task force and co-creation sessions, in which CSI staff are invited to share their ideas about sustainability and how our company can improve in this area

Retained EcoVadis to advise CSI on how to further improve our ESG strategy and help us to drive its implementation

2

Asked our non-executive directors to lead an independent oversight initiative

CSI’s corporate responsibility awards

Our green pledge

CSI has been committed to a greener and more sustainable world since its inception in 2016, and we will continue to pursue our ambition to reduce the impact of our activities on the environment. This means that the way we operate today must meet the needs of the present, while collaboratively building on a cleaner and healthier environment for future generations.
