Sustainability is a broad concept, and we at Corporate Apartments are involved in several areas to contribute to sustainable business practices for both ourselves and the companies that rent our corporate apartments. We collaborate with companies that are building for the future. Our customers, who are often active in the construction and contracting sectors, work on large and innovative projects throughout Sweden. By offering flexible and long-term housing solutions, we assist these companies in creating sustainable cities and communities.
How our accommodations help companies reduce their environmental impact
We offer energy-efficient accommodation, where all heating and electricity are included. This allows us to optimize energy use for our tenants and reduce excess energy waste.
With responsible property management, we ensure that our properties are regularly maintained and inspected to ensure that the properties are in good condition and maintain their energy efficiency. It can be about everything from the sealing strips being of good quality, to the entire heating systems being up to date.
All our accommodation has waste sorting of household garbage and we monitor heating and electricity consumption every month, which benefits everyone both the costs and the environment.
The proximity to the workplaces also makes a big difference in the environmental impact compared to personnel having to commute long distances to get to the construction sites. Our large selection of housing in the metropolitan regions as well as our network of partners and property owners around the country make it possible to find housing solutions without long transport distances every day.
How Corporate Apartments works internally with sustainability
As I said, we work in many different areas to reduce our environmental impact. It ranges from the fact that we primarily buy our own office furniture second-hand to the fact that our company cars are electric or hybrid cars.
We repair and reuse as much as possible instead of buying new. This can apply to both furniture and technical equipment, both in our own office and in our various rental properties.
By having many meetings online, we reduce travel in the service, many customer meetings and sales meetings take place digitally remotely. This is a big difference to how the industry previously worked with many long distance journeys. Our office is basically paperless and instead everything is managed digitally.
In addition to these areas with a large environmental impact, we also work with sustainability in the small and personal.
In order to be a sustainable workplace for our employees, we have also worked a lot on areas that contribute to creating a good working environment and good working conditions. It can be, for example, about offering maximum health care allowance, a good work-life balance without a lot of overtime, understanding and flexibility for different employees' different circumstances, good conditions regarding insurance and pensions, modern thinking in HR work and leadership, telecommuting policy, joint social activities and work adjustment at needs.
