Sustainable digitalization at ti&m

Sustainability is – after the key issue for us, namely digitalization – the second global megatrend that will decisively shape how we live together as communities, how we create economic value, and our quality of life over the coming years. We’re convinced that these two issues fit together brilliantly and that they can fuel each other. And we’re confident that thinking and acting sustainably will bring our company long-term and stable success. This is why we’re constantly striving to improve: to make responsible use of natural resources as a company, to treat the people around us with respect, and to pursue our business goals on the basis of our values.

Our sustainability certificates

ti&m meets the sustainability requirements according to ISO 14001, 9001 and 27001 and has been awarded by EcoVadis.

The international standard for environmental management, ISO 14001, defines globally recognized requirements for an environmental management system. ISO 9001 defines the requirements for quality management systems. And with our company’s information security management system, based on ISO 27001, we implement state-of-the-art security mechanisms.

Code of conduct

Environmental code of conduct

The opportunities for each and every individual to reduce the company’s environmental footprint are set out in this code of conduct. Our code of conduct is published in the employee handbook, and all our employees are bound by it.

Facts and figures

Dashboard

Concrete KPIs show our progress toward our environmental and social sustainability goals.

Travel

Mobility

We have always believed in being close to our clients on our digitalization projects. This minimizes the need for frequent trips to their locations. We also avoid flying wherever possible and use trains and public transport instead, both for business travel and our employee fringe benefits.

Workplace management

Workspaces

We minimize the company workspaces that we need and hence the required infrastructure by intelligently managing our workplaces with the support of software (ti&m places).

An employer with a heart and a sense of responsibility

Socially fair employment conditions, work-life balance, and our duty of care toward our employees are the principles underpinning our social responsibility as a sustainable Swiss company. Valuing our employees and their unique abilities, perspectives, and needs is what drives us to offer them an individually tailored work environment.

Liquid working

Our employees’ work-life balance is very important to us.

That’s why we have introduced liquid working – our flextime working model for our digitalization experts.

Social responsibility

Developing young talent with hack an app

As a sustainable digitalization company, we are part of society and benefit from its creativity and infrastructure. It’s therefore only natural for us to give something back. For many years, we have been supporting the development of young people’s digital expertise – for our digital future.
