Corporate Social Responsibility

Recognising the importance of formalising our existing activities in the area of corporate social responsibility, Carey Olsen is developing a strategy that harnesses the energy and willingness of our staff so that we have clear goals: reducing our carbon footprint, how we help communities and charities,  how we combine relationships with our clients and suppliers to the benefit of the environment, community and charitable work.

Community
Our work in the community extends to staff playing an active role as volunteers on committees that span business, government, charities, education and public welfare. Our activities also include raising funds for charities, helping young people to advance in their specialist interests and sponsoring sport, music and the arts.

Workplace
Carey Olsen was the first law firm in the Channel Islands to achieve Investor in People standard. We undertake regular in-house training for our staff and operate a very successful social club that includes weekly events. Our staff are very committed and we listen to their ideas. The firm provides great opportunities for personal development and career progression.

Environment
We have in place recycling, energy saving and print saving initiatives in an effort to reduce our carbon footprint.

Marketplace
Carey Olsen undertakes a number of joint initiatives with clients in respect of assisting charities, music and the arts. We also encourage our suppliers to subscribe to our corporate social responsiblity ethos and we undertake to be responsible towards them in return.
