Social responsibility
As a large corporate services provider, Deloitte does not only have an economic responsibility but also a social one. We aim to make a positive impact on our community. This is why we formulated a strategy around our corporate social responsibility.
Deloitte Impact Foundation
The Deloitte Impact Foundation gives every Deloitter the chance to use his or her talent to make an impact in society. We focus specifically on projects that contribute to education, societal innovation and improving the quality of life. Themes which do not only appeal to Deloitters but in which their knowledge and abilities can also add value.
Time investment
Deloitte encourages all colleagues to spend 1% of their working hours on Deloitte Impact Foundation projects. All projects are visible on our internal ‘social engagement platform’ on which Deloitters can either join an existing project or start one themselves.
Projects
Per year, over a 100 impactful projects of various sizes are realized through the Deloitte Impact Foundation. To give an impression of the broad variety of projects, here are some examples:
- A team of over 90 professionals helps The Ocean Cleanup rid the world’s oceans of plastic by supporting them with our full breadth and depth of services.
- Our cyber risk professionals provide ethical hacking trainings for children.
- The Deloitte Future Academy project helps refugees integrate into the Dutch professional working environment.
- Our digital team is developing Alice the care robot, aimed to decrease loneliness among elderly people.
- As a partner of the Think Forward Initiative we improve people’s lives by empowering them to make better financial decisions.
