Environment
Skyline commits to sustainability
At Skyline, we believe that to improve the well-being of all people in our company, in our community, and even on our planet, we need to act now.
Our goal: becoming carbon-neutral in 2025
To achieve this goal, we are implementing a variety of initiatives throughout our organization. These include transitioning to renewable energy sources, increasing energy efficiency, investing in carbon offset projects to compensate for our business travel, and implementing sustainable practices in our offices around the world. We pledge to at least halve our absolute emissions by 2025, and we will also implement a transparent annual reporting system to track our progress and share it with the world.
Free DataMiner software for footprint reduction
As part of our relentless commitment towards our global climate, Skyline Communications offers all current drivers related to energy monitoring in the DataMiner catalog free of charge, if they are used specifically for the purpose of energy management and reduction of ecological footprints. This way, we want to maximize the positive impact of our DataMiner software on our environment, and by extension, on everyone’s well-being.
Almost Energy-Neutral HQ
Our buildings in Belgium have an E-level of 30 and use very little energy for heating, ventilation, cooling and hot water. This makes it almost energy-neutral, which is exceptional for a building of its size. The energy that is needed comes from green energy sources.
Social
Skyline invests in people
At Skyline, we believe in attracting, retaining and promoting diverse talent by making work more equitable, accessible, and rewarding for all people. This ensures that a variety of voices and perspectives are brought to bear to create more effective and innovative products and to bring them to market faster.
Nurturing
With the Skyline Employee Council, we nurture inclusive internal communities by empowering them to organize and amplify their voices to contribute to the overall well-being of all Skyline employees.
Reflection
Diverse teams are better equipped to understand the needs of a diverse consumer base and being surrounded by people you can identify with is vital to any employee’s well-being.
Cultivation
Embracing workplace belonging is our driving force. This is why we constantly strive to enhance our training programs and foster awareness regarding inclusion and equity across all departments and locations.
Our people pact
Emphasizing the power of genuine connections, fosters a culture of selflessness, respect, and commitment to collective growth.
Kindness
Being kind is essential in building and maintaining long-lasting relations between people and for the well-being of every person in any organization and beyond. We strive towards genuine human experiences and this requires, more than anything else, kindness and gentleness.
Humbleness
We foster a low-ego culture and discourage power games. Serve the common good and always assume positive intent. Arrogance and condescending behavior is not the way forward. We celebrate success as a team and dod not claim personal victory, we accept failure as a team, and we grow by helping others.
Integrity
We want people to keep their commitments, and to do the right thing, even when nobody is looking. What we say is what we stand for, and we do not pretend something else. Above all, be honest and be respectful. Without integrity things will fall apart rapidly.
Creating equitable opportunity
Having a diverse range of backgrounds, cultures, ages, ethnicities, genders, and ways of thinking enhances the strength and innovation of our company. To further advance the progress achieved in recent years, we fortified our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion framework in 2022, emphasizing three key objectives:
Purposeful workforce building
Attract exceptional and varied talent at every level through the creation of a distinctive and exemplary global hiring process that fosters collaboration.
Support and empower our workforce
Enhance fair processes, policies, and practices during critical moments to drive employee belonging and continuous growth.
Amplify diversity, equity, and inclusion
Leverage human ingenuity and technology to propel the global ESG/DEI movement, advancing DEI through strategic collaborations with like-minded customers, suppliers, and community partners.
Digital transformation requires talent transformation
We heavily invest in learning and growth opportunities. Every employee receives a certain amount of learning credits, which they get to spend on training courses of their choice. We offer a wide variety of learning opportunities, ranging from product-specific courses to training sessions on soft skills and leadership, and even higher education opportunities.
