Corporate Responsibility

At RED C we are committed to reducing the impact our business has on the environment and to making a positive contribution to charitable organisations.  Our core aims are to:

 

  • Stick to our principles for the Environment and the Community
  • Be upfront and honest in everything we do
  • Conduct business considerately, fairly and ethically
  • Create a workplace environment where people feel empowered, supported and encouraged
  • Support charities both in Ireland & Abroad

 

The 1% Difference

RED C is delighted to give all staff 2 days leave per year to work for a charity of their own choosing, in order that they can give 1% of their time to a cause they believe in.

Our chosen charity is The Irish Wheelchair Association in Clontarf, which provides a range of support services for people with disabilities. The services they provide include assisted living, motoring services to help support disabled people in gaining increased independence and mobility, training and employment initiatives, sport and recreational facilities, wheelchair solutions and a range of outreach services in the local community.

Each summer all RED C staff also spend a half day volunteering at the Irish Wheelchair Association’s premises in Clontarf, painting rooms, washing windows and digging and planting a new garden.

 

Charities

RED C have nominated three charities that we use to provide respondents an opportunity to donate to charity for giving their time to conduct research.  These are:-
