Corporate Social Responsibility
Charity Support
Stafffinders are extremely passionate about supporting our local communities, that is why every second year, our team collectively choose a different charity close to our hearts, to help sponsor them in as many ways as we can, to help improve the lives of others.
We are incredibly proud to say that our current charity partner is Alzheimer Scotland, a remarkable charity that supports the lives of people with dementia, as well as their families, friends, and the people around them to ensure that no one faces dementia alone. If you would like to donate, you can do so on the Stafffinders X Alzheimer Scotland Just Giving page. Even a small amount makes a huge difference.
Between 2020 – 2022, we supported MND Scotland, a leading charity based in Scotland providing life-saving care and support to those affected by Motor Neurone Disease. Between 2018 and 2019, the Stafffinders team chose Recovery Across Mental Health, a charity that supports over 4,000 people across Scotland with mental health issues. Whilst from 2016 – 2017, we were honoured to support Cash for Kids which helped local children realise their potential and lead fulfilling lives.
We aim to do everything we can do in support of our chosen charities. As a team, we volunteer our time to organise regular fundraising events and promote the charity's incredible efforts throughout our online channels, encouraging enhanced awareness. Combined with ongoing financial help, we are delighted to offer a fantastic range of support and dedicate our time to charities who need it most.
Young People’s Initiative
As Scotland’s Original Recruitment Agency, our heritage and passion for helping our local communities mean that we are always on the lookout for emerging talent within younger generations to join the Stafffinders family. To ensure we are continually supporting young people's career aspirations and personal development, Stafffinders is involved in the Santander Internship Programme with the University of Strathclyde. This offers ambitious students the chance to gain invaluable experience within the workplace over the course of a 10-week internship, covering specific recruitment and marketing projects.
Each year, we are thrilled to welcome new recruits over this period and pride ourselves in offering these opportunities to empower young people to reach their full potential. Stafffinders truly understand the importance of channelling and utilising young people's creativity and work ethic, allowing them to apply their newfound skills and knowledge into practice, and contribute to their future career development. We are honoured to be a part of this scheme, ultimately helping to reduce youth unemployment and support Scotland’s economic growth.
Sustainability
At Stafffinders, we are deeply committed to environmental stewardship and sustainability. We firmly believe in safeguarding the planet for future generations, which is why we continuously strive to integrate sustainable practices across our operations. This commitment extends beyond our internal practices to actively promote environmental responsibility within our local communities.
We are dedicated to finding innovative ways to minimise our environmental footprint, including the implementation of robust recycling programmes and the transition to digital processes for regular operations, forms, and timesheets. Our commitment to sustainability extends to operating practical initiatives like our company-wide cycle-to-work scheme. By embracing these initiatives, we aim to create a greener future while setting a positive example for others to follow.
Diversity and Inclusivity
As a family-run business, we are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace that aligns with our foundational vision and broader business strategy. At Stafffinders, we are deeply passionate about providing equal opportunities to our employees, candidates, and clients, while nurturing a strong and supportive business culture.
At the heart of our business enterprise lies a strong commitment to Diversity and Inclusion. We rigorously adhere to current policies and lawful employment practices, ensuring exemplary working conditions for all. These principles drive our efforts to assist clients in achieving their diversity goals, safeguarding against any unlawful discrimination towards candidates we recommend for their vacancies.
Upholding these values remains paramount as we aim to exceed expectations, fostering a culture of diversity and inclusivity, both within our workplace and throughout our broader community.
