Our social responsibility commitments to a strong and sustainable future for generations to come

At ATM Global Logistics, we are aware of the challenges posed by the constant changes in our environment. That’s why we are increasingly committed to Corporate Social Responsibility.

SOCIETAL

ATM Global Logistics is committed to the well-being and fulfilment of its employees. Aware of the importance of work-life balance, the company offers its employees six weeks’ holiday a year, far exceeding the usual standards. In addition, ATM also offers one week’s ‘Workation’ per year, giving employees the opportunity to work remotely from their own holiday location.

As part of our commitment to contributing to everyone’s health, at ATM we actively encourage employees to take part in blood donation initiatives, demonstrating our commitment to responsible corporate citizenship. ATM has a strong commitment to gender equality, guaranteeing parity between men and women at all levels of the company. In a context where, in Switzerland in 2023, women earn on average 18% less than men per month, ATM has put in place policies to ensure that women within the company benefit from pay equity (certified by a Logib salary survey). It is also important to note that women at ATM have a slightly higher average salary than men. Since its foundation in 1976, ATM Global Logistics has constantly evolved while keeping in mind the importance of preserving and respecting the interests of future generations, thus placing sustainability at the heart of its mission and actions.

ENVIRONMENTAL

We are committed to respecting the environment through a series of ecological initiatives.

Aware of the challenges posed by the transport sector’s carbon footprint, we offer our customers the opportunity to choose less polluting modes of transport by opting for alternative solutions. In addition, we favour partnerships with companies focused on sustainable development, such as Swiss Air, which is actively working to reduce its environmental impact both on the ground and in the air. Locally, we are contributing to the transition to cleaner energy, with one of the largest fields of photovoltaic panels in the canton of Neuchâtel on our roof, some of the energy produced being fed back into the local grid.

What’s more, for a number of years now we’ve been working to reduce waste by adopting a ‘zero paper’ policy in our operations offices, while at the same time using LED lighting, which as a reminder consumes on average 7 times less electricity than conventional lighting (halogen or incandescent).

At ATM Global Logistics, we make every effort to reduce the excess waste associated with the transport of goods thanks to our in-house crating service. We also work closely with local companies to maximise waste sorting.

ECONOMIC

At ATM Global Logistics, our slogan ‘Make global, local’ guides our commitment to our community and our local economy. We believe in the value of supporting our region and fostering strong local partnerships. This is reflected in our active support for local sports clubs and our role as a local economic player, helping to create jobs in our canton. Since moving to Crêt-du-Locle in 2015, our workforce has doubled, demonstrating our commitment to economic growth and employment in the region. In addition, we attach great importance to working with local players for our IT needs and for our vehicles, for example. This approach strengthens our links with the local community while contributing to the economic vitality of our region.

At ATM Global Logistics, we are aware that our sustainability objectives are still a long way from being achieved. However, we are determined to work every day to strengthen our commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).

We firmly believe in the importance of continually improving our practices to minimise our impact on society and the environment. This is why we are constantly striving to implement initiatives aimed at increasing our positive contribution to these crucial areas.

We believe that every little bit of progress counts, and we are determined to continue our efforts to move forward on our sustainability journey.
