Environmental Policy

At Change Hospitality, we are deeply committed to reducing our environmental impact and integrating sustainability into every aspect of our operations. As a certified B Corporation, we are proud to meet high standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency, demonstrating our belief that business should be a force for good.

We are also working toward ISO 14001:2015 certification – the internationally recognised standard for Environmental Management Systems. This will provide us with a structured framework to manage our environmental responsibilities, ensure legal compliance, and drive continuous improvement in our sustainability efforts.

As a people-first recruitment agency, we connect exceptional talent with the UK’s leading hospitality and catering brands. But our mission goes beyond recruitment – we are here to build lasting, meaningful relationships that support our clients, empower our candidates, and positively impact the wider community. Our environmental commitment is a vital part of this mission.

We recognise that our business has an environmental footprint, and we actively challenge ourselves to improve it across all areas of our service. Our sustainability initiatives include:

• Building strong partnerships with social enterprises
• Reducing packaging and increasing recycling
• Minimising waste across our operations
• Reducing reliance on single-use plastics
• Using energy and water more efficiently
• Choosing environmentally responsible cleaning and office products

We are committed to continually reviewing and improving our practices. We will reapply for B Corp certification, and our ISO 14001:2015 every three years, as required, ensuring we remain accountable and transparent in everything we do.

Change Hospitality complies fully with all relevant environmental laws, regulations, and industry standards. We are also committed to minimising pollution, waste, and emissions generated through our day-to-day business activities.

This Environmental Policy will be communicated to all employees so that everyone understands their role in creating a more sustainable future. We believe that through collective action, we can make a real and lasting impact.

Ultimately, we are accountable, not just to regulators and certifiers, but to our people, our planet, and the future of the hospitality industry.
