A reliable partner in Corporate Social Responsibility.
Kuiphuis goes a step further and focuses on benefits for people, society, and the environment. The company has a clear vision of how the world is developing. By being involved in the ins and outs of the environment and society, a heartfelt contribution is made. Stakeholder interests are taken into account as much as possible, and we support social institutions,
cultural initiatives, and sports activities.
We ensure proper labor participation within our company.
At least 2.0% of all working hours are performed by people with a “labor disability”, “WAJONG status”, or a “WSW indication”. (Work Participation Act obligation 2015/2016).
Our premises continuously consume electricity. To maintain a sustainable relationship with our environment, we strive to generate as much of our energy consumption ourselves as possible. For this purpose, we already have solar panels installed on our premises in Oldenzaal, Twello, Neede, and Dedemsvaart.
At our various locations, we are gradually replacing all outdoor lights with LED lamps. This is a positive development, as our self-generated energy is utilized more efficiently, and it also provides better visibility in the dark.
Finding a good balance between people, environment, and economy; it is a challenging task that affects us all.
What we do now has consequences for the future. The climate is changing due to the emission of (too many) greenhouse gases. We are using more from the Earth than it can regenerate. This severely impacts the Earth's capacity. How can we still continue to grow and meet everyone's needs without further burdening the Earth? The answer is sustainability.
If we make future-oriented choices now and operate sustainably, we invest in the world of tomorrow. More and more organizations are mapping their CO2 emissions and working on CO2 reduction. Through Sustainable Supplier, we strive for sustainable business operations: taking into account the effects on people and the environment in all business processes.
Sustainable business operations begin with a clear vision of corporate social responsibility. Additionally, it involves sustainable human resources policy, sustainable innovations, purchasing, and sales. This is not only important for people and the environment, but it also increases a company's distinctive capacity.
Investing in sustainable business operations is a future-oriented and commercial choice. This is because more and more clients are imposing sustainable requirements on their (A)suppliers.
Sustainable Supplier supports us in concretizing and demonstrating their sustainable efforts. Sustainability gains a concrete face.
Together with about 30 (other) companies, we provide financial support through this foundation for socio-cultural and sporting activities in Oldenzaal and its surroundings.
New in the area of our social responsibility is the donation of unused computer time. Since December 2012, Kuiphuis Kraanverhuur has equipped its servers and various workstations with software that utilizes unused processor power during nighttime hours (when there is little to no activity). This software is controlled by various universities worldwide to conduct research into diseases and abnormalities.
Additionally, since 2020, Folding@Home software has been installed for researching the COVID-19 disease.
Digital invoicing is indispensable in the context of sustainable policy. You will receive your invoice digitally in your own e-mailbox (once your email address is known). No more waste of printers/printer paper/envelopes and diesel-powered postal deliverers.
For fully automatic processing in your accounting system, our server delivers your invoice in PDF and XML format. Regardless of which invoicing program you use, it is always very clear and easy to process. Naturally, the (signed) work order is also delivered digitally.
In 2017, Kuiphuis had the opportunity to roll out a project in the field of sustainable employability. This project was made possible with financial resources from the European Union.
Kuiphuis considers it important to invest in its employees. By continuously developing and improving ourselves, we strive for longer, healthier, and more engaged employability of our employees and a committed and development-oriented organizational culture.
