We've created a quick self-assessment that will ask you a handful of questions about your business to help you understand the key areas of sustainable and responsible business that you could be thinking about, and what you could do next.
But what does sustainability, or responsible business mean?
There are many terms used in the business world to describe what we mean by sustainable and responsible business: ESG, corporate social responsibility (CSR) and business ethics are just a few. Ultimately, they all refer to the same 3 lenses:
Your business
Ensuring it's run responsibly, with ethics, transparency and accountability at it's core.
People
Ensuring that you create a positive social impact on the people and communities you work with and serve.
The planet
Ensuring that you consider and promote environmental sustainability through your business choices.
How being more sustainable and responsible can help your business
Research has shown wide benefits that adopting sustainable and responsible practices could bring for small businesses like yours, regardless of whether you are in a team of 1 or 100.
From better cost management and creating more engaged employees and customers, through to helping you bring in new customers, or win new work - there has never been a more valuable time for you to create a positive impact through your business.
We want all small businesses in the UK, whether you're a customer of ours or not, to have quick and easy access to resources and information that can help you become more sustainable and responsible, and reap the rewards it could bring.
As an insurer of 10,000+ small businesses across the UK, we see how pressures are growing to adopt more sustainable and responsible business practices.
We know how complicated this world can feel, and concerns that making these changes are costly and time-consuming are common.
But making the shift could be easier and quicker than you think.
That's why we've partnered with impact experts, Good Innovation, to create the Better Business Hub and bring together resources that can help you become more sustainable, responsible, and reap the rewards it could bring.
As a small business ourselves, we understand the challenges of keeping up with evolving demands. That's why we couldn't pass up the opportunity to team up with Beazley and create the hub we wish we had when embarking on our own sustainable and responsible business journey.
If you encounter any issues while navigating the Better Business Hub or have any questions about sustainability or responsible business, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
You can reach us via email at help.betterbusinesshub@beazley.com where our team will aim to respond within 2 business days.
