Sustainability in business means actively minimising negative impacts on the environment and communities. At VCA, we prioritise sustainability in all our operations.

Our Career Progression Gateway (CPG) system revolutionises recruitment and selection processes, ensuring they are environmentally friendly and efficient. By transitioning from in-person assessments to an online platform, we not only enhance the accuracy of our results but also demonstrate our commitment to sustainable practices.

As organisations increasingly emphasise sustainability, the UK Fire & Rescue Service has integrated sustainable development into its core strategy, focusing on waste reduction and carbon emission cuts to benefit the environment, economy, and society.

VCA aligns with these values through:

  • Remote Selection: Our online assessment process significantly lowers carbon emissions by eliminating the need for assessors to travel to client sites, thereby enhancing efficiency and reducing our carbon footprint.
  • Reduced Paper Use: By minimising reliance on paper-based assessments, we limit waste and protect natural resources. This digital approach allows for quicker setup and requires fewer physical resources, streamlining operations.
  • Support for Organisations: The CPG addresses common challenges such as staffing shortages and budget constraints while contributing to societal efforts against climate change.
