Diversity and Sustainability

Diversity

Gender equality has been at the forefront of our drive for diversity and inclusion. Here at Backspace, we are committed to ensuring equability in female representation among all significant roles within the company. For this, we have undertaken various initiatives where we carefully monitor our current pool of female talent in order to determine the appropriate succession pipeline for them.

There is absolutely zero tolerance for racism, sexism, or discrimination within our organization. Nobody should be made to feel inferior because of their background, race, ethnicity, or gender. That is why we maintain a bias-free culture where everyone is given a level playing field no matter what their rank or position is. However, in the case of a person becoming a victim of discrimination, we have a dedicated support team that will take necessary action in a swift and just manner.

We strongly believe that everyone should be given an equal opportunity to contribute and prove themselves regardless of their age, gender, marital status, race, ethnicity, religion, or disability. And that we should all come together to create an environment free from discrimination and prejudice. Only when we unite can we truly achieve something great.

Our Workplace Culture

The key to a strong work culture is how valued and supported an employee feels in the workplace

Culture is everything! That is why we are always trying to build a culture where everyone feels at home. This is what drives us towards a future where no one is left behind.

The path toward assembling an inclusive workforce is not an easy one. At Backspace, we are committed to our goal of representation and diversity by taking meaningful steps toward creating a space where everyone’s voice is heard.

To get the best out of our teams, we must also give them the best. That is only possible by cultivating a nurturing and supportive work environment where our employees feel that they are taken care of.

We believe in equal opportunities for all. Our top priority is to employ the right person for the right job. The talent that we have developed over the years is primarily due to the collaborative nature of our work. There are no barriers nor any classism within our organization. Furthermore, despite the fast-paced industry we operate in, we have always been very flexible so that we could best meet the requirements of our employees.

Without sustainability, there is no society

At Backspace, we are committed to the long-term sustainability of the environment and our society. Our organizational framework is designed to tackle the challenges of the modern world so that we can bring a positive impact to the planet we call home.

Sustainability Goals For Our Organization:

Environment
Backspace is aware of the issues that come from mistreating the environment we live in
The negative impact of rising temperatures on the ecosystem, people, economies, and our livelihood cannot be understated. As a community, we must take active steps in order to prevent this from happening. We at Backspace are proud to say that we have a relatively small carbon footprint thanks to the nature of our work. However, we recognize that it is our duty to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and use our platform to promote and encourage others to do so as well.
Social
We are striving to create a society free from any kind of inequality or prejudice
As a corporate citizen and employer, our goal is to give back to our community. Because without effort, we won’t be able to improve the society we live in. Our purpose is to improve the lives of people by providing them with opportunities to make a difference for themselves. Social inclusion is a vital component of our organization as we want to create a space where everyone feels included. And we hope to inspire others to do the same.
Governance
Without the implementation of fair principles, it is not possible to make a change for the better.
A clear and transparent governance structure is crucial to make well-thought-out strategic decisions. We are always on the lookout on how to do things better. The governance system we have implemented assures both our stakeholders and employees that not only is our organization run well and follows fair employment policies, but also that we are operating for the success of our long-term sustainability targets.

To positively impact the lives of people by providing jobs and skill development opportunities regardless of who you are or where you are from

To bring more diversity to our staff and management by increasing the number of women in the workplace

To promote carbon neutrality within our community by educating people and businesses on how they can reduce their carbon footprint

Our Beliefs

Integrity

As a business for people, we know that actions speak louder than words. That is why we maintain the highest standards for integrity through transparency, strong ethical codes, and fair business practices.

Respect

In order to get respect, you must first give respect. And that is the value that we have instilled within our organization. Everyone is entitled to being respected regardless of who they are.

Teamwork

Backspace is more than just a group of people doing their jobs – we are a family. We work together, laugh together, and most importantly, we help the company grow together.

Leadership

A ship cannot reach its destination without a competent captain at the helm. The job of the leader is not only to take charge, but rather to lead by example. Furthermore, it is the leader’s responsibility to inspire the next generation to do better.
