Message from the management
This is our second year of ESG reporting, and we have come a long way since last year. Especially when it comes to understanding - and reporting on–the different topics of ESG.
A large part of our focus this year has been on proper documentation, reporting, and complying with the rules and standards of ESG. This has given us a deeper understanding of our impacts and efforts, and it is a stepping stone for our further endeavors. Our other areas of focus have been employee health and fitness – and finding more ways to reduce emissions in our energy consumption.
We are confident we will find new ways to improve our company in the future–and we know that these ways will be paved with factual insights.
Environment and climate
We are committed to lessening our impact on the planet. We deliver digital products and our direct impacts mainly come from our energy consumption - from both creating and using our products. Emissions from work related travels and running our offices are also taken into account.
Our indirect impacts come from the products and services we use – and of course the products we help market.
CO2e
Our calculations are based on Erhvervsstyrelsens Klimaberegner (The Danish Business Authority), and they are in accordance with the internationally approved standards of the GHG protocol.
Energy and resources
Our energy- and water use is within what’s expected for a company like ours, and we are still quite a bit above the average when it comes to our share of renewable energy. We have actually managed to increase our share a bit, but we are still searching for ways to do more.
We are constantly looking at new ways to minimize emissions from our energy consumption. Last year, we looked into an array of options – such as solar panels and clever ventilation - to improve our efforts. So far, we have installed intelligent ventilation, while we are still investigating solar panels with the addition of battery packs. This is a complex solution, and we know now that a large amount of thought and patience is needed in these processes.
We will however continue to find new ways to lessen our consumption and impact.
The decrease in our energy consumption from last year’s report is mainly due to us residing solely on one address in 2023 – whereas we were split on two for a while in 2022.
Social
We currently have 68 full-time employees working for us. We are situated in Denmark, Germany, and the UK, and we have a wide range of skills represented on our payroll. Some departments are male-dominated, which of course also has to do with the number of men in the field. In 2022, 67 percent of employees in tech companies were male – 75 percent in the technical roles, according to Deloitte1. This is pretty much on par with our numbers.
We still have a gender pay gap which favors our female employees. This is primarily due to their roles and seniority.
Regarding absence and sick leave, we reported numbers below the national average last year (10 days for us, 11 days for the national average in 20222), and our number of sick days has further declined in 2023.
