FIVE adheres to ESG best practices and conducts itself ethically in three areas.
Environmental
Preservation of our natural world.
• Paperless Validation Approach - no use of paper, no printers, no cartridge disposal (tens of thousands of sheets of paper per year that haven’t been wasted since FIVE started using paperless validation).
• FIVE operation is conducted electronically, in Cloud: ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), CRM (Customer Relationship Management), eQMS (electronic Quality Management System), IT management software, etc.
• Allows 100% remote work, to avoid commuting and contributing to carbon emissions reduction.
See how we saved over 2 million sheets of paper and 230 trees.
Social
Consideration of humans and our interdependency.
• Work from anywhere: professionals with the same opportunities as in big business centers.
• Clients’ success.
• Pay equality, without discrimination.
