CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
As a responsible corporate citizen, we strive to be a sustainable
business and contribute to a better world. From developing
responsible products to engaging employees, investing in
communities and tackling climate change, Rogers is firmly committed
to corporate social responsibility (“CSR”). In fact, CSR is becoming
ever more important to our growth, competitive advantage and
engagement with all of our key stakeholders.
Our CSR focus areas include:
•Product stewardship: Across the product life cycle – from design,
manufacturing and transport to packaging, usage and end-of-life –
we take health, safety, the environment and other issues into
account. We focus on ensuring our offerings meet customer and
community expectations, as well as our own criteria for quality,
social responsibility and environmental respect.
•Employee engagement: We want Rogers to be a place in which
employees feel proud, where they look forward to making a
contribution, and where each has the chance to do their best work
every day. To achieve that, we work hard to create a culture of
employee engagement, encourage and respect diversity and
provide leading workplace initiatives, from far-reaching benefits to
customized training, development and personal assistance
programs.
•Community investment: We stand by the principles of corporate
citizenship and benchmarks for community investment established
by Imagine Canada, committing at least 1% of our net earnings
before taxes annually to charities and non-profit organizations.
Every year, Rogers invests in many worthy causes to help create
vibrant, healthy, talent-rich communities. Our flagship program,
Rogers Youth Fund, supports educational opportunities for at-risk
Canadian youth.
•Environmental responsibility: We continue to proactively manage
the environmental aspects of our business. Each year we measure
our carbon footprint and undertake a wide range of initiatives to
increase our energy efficiency, reduce paper use and divert
materials from our operations from landfills. In addition, we are
focused on building environmental awareness and engagement
among our employees, customers and communities.
•Ethical supply chain: Rogers is a large purchaser, with over 37,000
suppliers across Canada and internationally. An ethical supply chain
is pivotal to our reputation and success. We pay special attention to
sound sourcing, production and delivery of supplier products and
services, and have set strong expectations of corporate social
responsibility throughout our supply chain, including compliance
with the Rogers Supplier Code of Conduct.
