Corporate Social Responsibility

Within AVC Media, Corporate Social Responsibility is an important part of our business objectives. We strive to offer help, advice and support to the local community, identifying ways in which we can utilise our experience, specialist knowledge and vast service offering to the benefit of others.

Please direct all CSR enquiries to Katherine MacPherson.

These have included the Grampian Police Community Diversity Team, Grampian Police Diced Cap, St Machar Academy, Robert Gordon University, Peterhead Academy, Children 1^st, Cornerstone, Inspire and NHS Organ Donation Register.

The AVC Business Centre also promotes and encourages local artists by inviting them to exhibit in the centre’s new gallery, viewed by hundreds of delegates a month.

Environment

AVC Media remains committed to environmental management and ways of reducing the carbon footprint of the business as a whole. Following a Business Environment Partnership (BEP) audit in 2007, AVC Media developed an environmental policy and monitoring. AVC Media continue to identify new ways of improving environmental performance and have recently introduced a number of new and improved recycling schemes in the AVC Business Centre.

Health and Safety

The health and safety of our employee’s is of the highest priority to AVC Media. Our objective is to have a workplace free of incidents and injuries. Our Health and Safety Policy reflects this and is constantly reviewed and adjusted where appropriate to achieve this aim.

Equality and Diversity

AVC Media is committed to achieving a working environment which provides equality of opportunity and freedom from unlawful discrimination on the grounds of race, colour, nationality, ethnic origin, gender, marital status, disability, religious beliefs, age or sexual orientation.

AVC Media’s partnership with Community Diversity Team at Grampian Police has seen staff get involved in community projects where possible, celebrating the varied cultures within the city. A car, enabling the team to travel to different areas within the city to carry out their work, was recently donated to the police by AVC Media.
