Corporate Social Responsibility

Enet’s Corporate Social Responsibility policy is centred on 3 main tenets

Enet understands and recognises the importance of conducting business in a socially responsible manner and aims to adopt, apply and support best practice principles by ensuring environmental and social parameters are considered throughout our business.

Furthermore, the Leadership Team, as well as the Board of Directors, considers that corporate social responsibility is an integral element of good business management.

Our staff

Enet recognises that its employees are its most valuable resource

We offer carriers a wide and innovative range of wholesale products and services, ranging from Managed Services, Infrastructure Access, Direct Internet Access, Voice among others.

Pay and benefits

Enet believes that its staff should be fairly compensated and rewarded for the work they do. In addition to the competitive salaries offered, an attractive benefits package is offered.

Training and development

Enet is vigilant in identifying areas where continued training and development is necessary. Most of the training requirements are identified through the annual performance appraisals process. However, management and staff requests for relevant up-skilling is monitored and updated actively in the training plan.

Educational assistance programme

The wholesale nature of our business, and the manner in which the company embraces this model, ensures that we don't compete with our customers.

Work / life Balance

In terms of striving for a work / life balance, the company attempts to be reasonable and flexible to ensure personal and family life does not suffer unduly

The Wider Community

Creating relationships with and contributing to the local communities in which we operate is becoming increasingly important to the business because we feel it is the right thing to do. We simply call this “Giving Back”.

Charitable Donations

Contributing to a variety of good causes both locally and nationally where we feel that our contribution can make a real difference.

Sponsorships

Sponsoring local sporting teams and / or events.

Donating Time

Organising fund raising activities on behalf of Charities.

The Environment

Enet recognises that its employees are its most valuable resource

Enet takes our environmental responsibilities very seriously and actively operates an environmental management system. We strive to reduce our own impact and the impact of any sub-contractors on the environment.

Our environmental policy specifically targets the construction element of our business and Enet expects all subcontractors and suppliers to co-operate fully in the implementation of this system.

Network Design

We ensure that energy design is a key part of our network design and we have taken a number of specific actions that reduce the impact on the environment e.g. Increased tolerances on air conditioning in 86 collocation facilities to reduce energy consumption.

Recycling

General awareness and cognisance of recycling is promoted within the business. Separation of materials such as paper, plastics and cardboard are catered for. In addition, Enet purchase recycled stationary and use recycled ink cartridges as a matter of course.

Video Conferencing

The Company has installed and frequently uses video conferencing. The business case for this was to reduce the requirements for travel.
