We’re proud to share that Inter Relocation has been awarded a Bronze EcoVadis rating, a recognition of our ongoing commitment to sustainability and responsible business practices.
The Bronze EcoVadis rating reflects the progress we’ve made across a wide range of areas, including environmental responsibility, workplace culture, and governance. While it shows that we still have room to grow, it is a clear sign that our policies and initiatives are creating measurable impact.
Our Sustainability Efforts So Far
At Inter Relocation, our sustainability approach covers:
-
Employee well-being and inclusion: We offer flexible working options, remote opportunities, and regular awareness training to ensure that diversity, equality, and respect remain central to our workplace.
-
Environmentally friendly operations: From using electric vehicles in our city transportation fleet to recycling cardboard, ink cartridges, and office supplies, we are actively reducing waste and lowering our carbon footprint.
-
Responsible governance: We uphold strong labour and human rights policies, treating all employees fairly and transparently, regardless of background.
“Achieving the Bronze EcoVadis rating is an important step on our sustainability journey. It recognises our progress so far and motivates us to do even more,” says Stuart McAlister, company owner.
What is the EcoVadis rating?
The EcoVadis assessment is the world’s leading platform for evaluating companies’ environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance. Ratings range from Bronze to Platinum, with Bronze EcoVadis rating signifying a company has taken meaningful steps towards sustainability, with opportunities to build on this foundation.
EcoVadis evaluates companies based on 21 criteria, grouped into four main themes:
-
Environment – energy, emissions, materials, and resource use
-
Labour & Human Rights – workplace conditions, diversity, health and safety
-
Ethics – fair business practices and transparency
-
Sustainable Procurement – responsible supply chain management
Why the Bronze EcoVadis Rating Matters
While some may see Bronze as just the first step on the scale, for us it carries deep meaning. It is proof that our everyday choices and initiatives are having an impact. It also helps us benchmark ourselves against international standards and identify where we need to go next.
For our clients and partners, the Bronze EcoVadis rating is a reassurance that sustainability is not just a buzzword at Inter Relocation – it is embedded in the way we work, move people, and manage resources.
Beyond the Workplace – Community Engagement
Sustainability is not only about reducing emissions or recycling. It’s also about supporting communities and reducing waste beyond our own office walls. We regularly donate used furniture, clothing, and household items from relocation clients to local charities, giving them a second life instead of adding to landfills.
This approach connects our sustainability goals with real, tangible community benefits, creating value for both people and the planet.
Our Next Steps
Receiving the Bronze rating is both a milestone and a motivation. We will continue to expand our recycling programmes, invest in eco-friendly technologies, and support our employees with inclusive policies. Our aim is to progress towards higher levels of recognition in the EcoVadis assessment—but most importantly, to continue reducing our environmental impact while strengthening our company culture.
Key areas of focus for the next period include:
-
Energy efficiency— optimizing office spaces and reducing overall consumption.
-
Water usage— introducing monitoring and reduction practices.
-
Supply chain— working with suppliers who share our values on sustainability.
-
Training— providing employees with more opportunities to engage in sustainability practices in their daily work.
Looking Ahead
We believe that sustainability is a journey, not a destination. The Bronze EcoVadis rating marks where we are today—and inspires us to aim higher. With every step, we want to improve the way we work, protect the environment, and create a workplace where people thrive.
We thank our entire team for their dedication and our clients for supporting a business that prioritises sustainability. Together, we are building a more responsible future.
