Responsible Business
We believe Corporate and Social Responsibility (CSR) is about doing well by doing good. We understand that this is not simply altruism but commercially sensible and as such it is embedded into everything we do, every day. In removing waste from every aspect of our business and our supply chains, we continue to conserve scarce environmental resources.
We use creativity before capital to solve problems and address issues, finding solutions that are low cost in terms of energy resources as well as in terms of cash.
By engaging with our local communities we can help to improve the employability and life prospects of those living within the community and develop local economies as well as positively impacting the well-being of our employees and their families
The Unipart Way
At the heart of our Group is The Unipart Way – our standard way of working that has been developed over more than 20 years.
It is a philosophy of working that inspires efficiency, flexibility and outstanding customer service in any process. It combines the best tools and techniques of lean thinking with a commitment to engaging employees at every level of the organisation.
It not only motivates people, it equips them with the skills to diagnose problems and create innovative solutions that will make a dramatic difference.
Unipart people consistently strive to deliver better than expected results through their high levels of engagement, underpinned by our operational excellence. It’s what we call Performance through Engagement.
