Technology for good

Bytes believe that modern technology has a positive impact on the world. It offers a path to sustainability, carbon neutrality, equality and education for us all. This is certainly true for the cloud and security solutions that we provide. As a Cloud First business, we encourage our clients to switch to the cloud instead of using energy inefficient on-premise datacentres. We use our security solutions to champion data privacy and protection; ensuring our clients can grow and innovate safely. We also invest heavily in our automation and machine learning consultancy partnerships, so that our clients can benefit from the latest energy efficient innovations on the market today.

CSR Policy & Initiatives

We take account of the social, economic and environmental impact of everything we do. We encourage staff to volunteer time to spend with charities and with people who need assistance.

Employee welfare sits right at the top of our priority list and goes hand in glove with our regard for societal impact. We actively participate in as many forms of recycling and carbon reduction as we can. Key to our philosophy is our active and positive effort to encourage diversity and inclusion at all levels within the organisation.

Communities

Putting communities at the heart of our business

Our long-standing support for the communities where we operate yields many benefits. It enriches our local areas, it makes our people feel good – about themselves and the business – it’s enjoyable, and it enhances our reputation.

Donations and charitable givings 

We freely give our money, skills and time to good causes, in line with our values. Central to our corporate responsibility policy is a commitment to give the equivalent of 1% of our overall business net profit after tax to charity each year. We have a formalised charity committee to manage our charity partnerships and fundraising, which includes those with a focus on mental health, cancer research charities, local food banks and hospices.
