Char.gy sustainability survey for drivers

At char.gy, we strive to be the trusted Electric Vehicle charging partner for our councils, communities and citizens, responsibly powering their transition to sustainable transport. To achieve our mission, we need to understand which environmental and social topics that char.gy has influence over matter most to our community of EV drivers.

Completing this short survey, which should take you no more than five to ten minutes, will help us build a picture of the relative importance of different environmental and social topics to our EV driver community.

Your responses are anonymous and will be processed by Perigon Partners Ltd, a sustainability strategy consultancy, solely for the purpose of this survey exercise. In continuing with the survey you consent to your data being used in this way and you can find a link to Perigon's data privacy policy here.

Your views on sustainability issues

The first question asks you to rank a set of 12 environmental and social topics (all of which are important to char.gy) in order of how influential they are on how you think about or make decisions in relation to char.gy.

To do this, arrange the list in descending order of how influential with the most influential at the top. Putting something lower doesn’t mean it’s not important, just that it holds relatively less influence over how you think about or make decisions in relation to char.gy than other issues do.

Business ethics - The risk of poor customer or societal outcomes from any instances of bribery, corruption, poor conduct and business ethics etc.

Community infrastructure and enablement - The opportunity for char.gy to support councils and drivers to transition to EVs by providing convenient and fairly-priced access to charge point infrastructure and education / information to support behavioural change.

Customer and community safety - Risks to end-user safety from char.gy’s products if they are not of adequate quality, or additional safety risks to the community during installation and maintenance of the estate.

Data and system resilience - The risk of external social or environmental factors (e.g. Cyber threats, severe weather events) disrupting char.gy's systems, or internal data protection failures occurring, and the resulting negative impact on customer outcomes.

Diversity, equity and inclusion - The risk that performance is negatively impacted by low workforce diversity (e.g. Decisions made that do not represent society) or by discrimination. And the opportunity to improve diversity through education, training and hiring practices.

Impact on cleaner air - The opportunity to positively contribute to lower pollution and better air quality through char.gy’s core activity as a facilitator of clean transport, resulting in better health outcomes for communities.

Impact on climate change - The opportunity to contribute positively to good climate outcomes through char.gy’s core activity as a facilitator of clean transport, reducing intense reliance on internal combustion engine vehicles and their high-emitting waste products.

Resource use and waste in operations - The impact of char.gy's direct operations, and any decommissioning of end-of-life products, on the environment, and the opportunity to reduce this.

Supply chain environmental impact - The environmental impact from the manufacture of component parts of char.gy's products, and opportunities to source sustainably, promote circularity, and minimise pollution, resource use and waste.

Workers in the supply chain - The risk that workers in char.gy's supply chain are not adequately protected in relation to human rights (e.g. Modern slavery, child labour), labour rights (e.g. Fair wages), and working conditions (e.g. Health and safety).

Workforce development - The opportunity for char.gy to upskill and reskill workers in order to access the necessary capabilities it needs as it grows its workforce, and to continue developing and rewarding its employees to retain those skills and capabilities.

Workforce health and safety - Risks to char.gy’s workforce health, safety and wellness from doing their jobs (e.g. accidents, chronic health issues or stress / mental health-related issues) and opportunity for char.gy to support good health, safety and wellness outcomes.
