This achievement reflects Cary Group’s commitment to sustainability, even though we are convinced to make improvements in recognized areas. Cary Group were also proudly rated as a Leader in Carbon Management Level, meaning that we have best-in-class decarbonization commitments, actions and reporting capabilities. This aligns with our climate vision to provide services with a minimum impact on the environment. One of Cary Group’s key targets is to reduce its CO2e emissions from scope 1 & 2 by 42% and scope 3 by 52% in relation to gross profit from 2022 to 2030, targets verified in line with the Science Based Target initiative’s (SBTi) 1.5°C scenario.

 

In 2024 EcoVadis revamped its assessment scheme and standards. Now, only the top 35% of companies that undergo the rigorous EcoVadis assessment are awarded a medal.

Cary Group is dedicated to offering a workplace with equal opportunities and an inclusive environment. The company aims to increase the number of female employees, particularly in production roles, to enhance gender equality and broaden its recruiting base.

Our new initiatives are a testament to our commitment to breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for women in traditionally male-dominated roles. By increasing the number of female technicians, we aim to not only enhance gender equality but also to enrich our company culture. The Female Technician Summit was a fantastic and important opportunity to hear our female technicians share their experiences, support each other, and discuss how to best create a good and inclusive working environment . It was a great experience for us all to feel the strength that we create together and to see first-hand the internal engagement and dedication from our managers and our organisation." ,says Maria Dillner, Director HR at Cary Group.
