Our
manifesto
Zestissime is committed to accompanying its customers on the virtuous path of a regenerative economy. The company applies this philosophy to itself, measuring each of its choices through the prism of sustainability. The size of our structure limits potential negative impacts; however, Zestissime is committed to implementing the following ten environmental, social and economic principles, adapted to its activities:
Authenticity
We say NO to potential customers who wish to display CSR in an overtly superficial or purely marketing way. No fine words without tangible commitments! Our customers choose us as much as we choose them.
Proximity
Our customers are mainly SMEs operating within a 500km radius, or even much closer! The same goes for our external consultants and suppliers. Our aim is to support a local economy.
mobility trio
We favor soft mobility in all our business and home-to-business trips, using electric bikes, public transport and the train. No professional parking space, no reimbursement for kilometers driven in a combustion-powered car!
carbon offsetting
If we are obliged to take a plane for a business trip that cannot take place by videoconference, we offset our GHG emissions via an authenticated program.
inspiring workplace
By choosing to set up our offices within a coworking space - La Baladeuse - dedicated to women entrepreneurs, we optimize several elements: computer equipment, common spaces, and encourage the exchange of skills.
anti-energivore
We implement all the recommended eco-gestures to limit our energy consumption, whether for lighting or heating, and refrain from using energy-hungry equipment.
digital reasoning
Whether it's the hosting and development of our website, digital tools developed for our customers, storage, accessibility and digital inclusiveness, all these issues are at the heart of our decisions for a responsible digital future.
Prosperity and listening
We are committed to offering flexible working conditions, attractive remuneration and access to training for our internal and external employees. Through telecommuting, flexible working hours and above-average remuneration, we promote pleasant working conditions and foster dialogue and personal development within our network.
DUTY OF TRANSMISSION
Access to CSR knowledge should be free and accessible to all. On our INSPIRATIONS web page, you'll find resources tailored to professionals who want to get started on their own.
Always give back
We have chosen to dedicate time and resources to support two associations whose activities are particularly relevant to our mission. Gaëlle Borgeaud works with the SINGA association as a CSR Mentor and Expert; she also runs FRESQUE DU CLIMAT workshops for the general public on a voluntary basis.
