# CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY POLICY
Date: 19 August 2030
Parties: Northmoor Analytics Limited and its stakeholders
## 1. Purpose and parties
Northmoor Analytics Limited adopts this CSR policy for its Leeds and Bristol operations and relevant supply chain. It is a public commitment and internal control, not a warranty that every target will be achieved. The board considers customers, employees, suppliers, communities and the environment when making responsible commercial decisions.
## 2. Facts, scope and terms
Against a 2028 baseline, Northmoor targets a 30% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 and net zero operations by 2040, subject to annual measurement and credible transition planning. It will purchase renewable electricity by 2027 where available, reduce business travel and report material Scope 3 categories rather than inventing offsets.
## 3. Process and responsibilities
Northmoor will maintain a low-waste office, measure electricity and travel, and prefer repair, reuse and accredited recycling. Environmental claims must be evidenced and qualified; marketing must not say “carbon neutral” merely because an offset was bought. The Facilities Lead reports data, assumptions and missed milestones to the board.
## 4. Evidence, records and safeguards
Employees receive two paid volunteering days each year, access to an Employee Assistance Programme and a safe route to raise concerns. Northmoor aims to retain Real Living Wage accreditation, supports flexible work and reasonable adjustments, and will monitor inclusion without publishing identifiable personal data. Community grants are capped at £25,000 annually.
## 5. Review, escalation and outcome
Suppliers sign an ethical-sourcing code covering forced labour, child labour, discrimination, safety, bribery, prompt payment and environmental compliance. A supplier in scope of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 section 54 reporting threshold will be assessed for an appropriate statement; Northmoor does not claim that threshold applies to every supplier.
## 6. Reservations and practical protections
The CSR lead maintains a register of commitments and incidents; Procurement audits higher-risk suppliers; the Audit and Risk Committee reviews progress twice yearly. The annual report states methodology, baseline, boundaries, limitations, complaints and corrective action, with external assurance where proportionate.
## 7. England and Wales law and completion
The policy is reviewed annually and staff may report greenwashing, labour or community concerns through whistleblowing without detriment. It does not create a private employment or customer cause of action unless separately agreed. England and Wales law applies; the board approves this version on 19 August 2030.
