Our Commitment
The TGS network became a signatory of the United Nations Global Compact in 2017. As a TGS member firm, we are committed to the sustainable development of our activities. Our distinctive title “Think Global Sustainability” embodies the mission of our network, with Sustainability, together with Quality Control based on International Standards on Auditing and Accounting Services that ensure timely and accurate information for the management, being at the heart of our daily activities.
The ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact are in line with the TGS policy of social responsibility. As a TGS member firm, we focus on quality, building trust and establishing sustainable relationships with our employees, customers and stakeholders.
In an increasingly unstable and unpredictable global environment, questions continually arise about how we work and how we measure the impact of business on our environments. Every year TGS publishes a COP (Communication On Progress) which documents our sustainable action. You can download our most recent COP here.
Quality Education
Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
At TGS Hellas we consider that education enables upward socioeconomic mobility and is a key to escaping poverty. At TGS Hellas, we have partnerships with Greek Universities, such as Athens University of Economics and Business and the Thessaloniki University of Macedonia providing internship and mentorship programs to students who are interested in our core activities, allowing them afterward to join our team. TGS Hellas has cooperation with professional institutes of certified auditors and accountants such as SOEL and ACCA.
SOEL and ACCA have established post-graduate professional programs dedicated to new entry members in the accounting and audit fields. TGS Hellas provides this program as a scholarship for all employees.
Gender Equality
Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls.
The path forward is clear. Organizations need to take bold steps to address gender equality. We need to recognize and reward the women leaders who are driving progress equally as male leaders. And we all need to do the deep cultural work required to create a workplace where all women feel valued.
Therefore, women are present in our firm and every year the number of female employees increases as we believe in gender equality.
Good health and well-being
Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.
The most successful organizations recognize that a healthy workplace is a happy and productive one.
Our goal is to treat employees with respect provide them with good compensation, benefits, and an excellent work-life balance, empower people, and develop take-care-structures within the organization and beyond. Taking into consideration the difficult years we faced because of Covid-19, at TGS Hellas we believe that supporting the well-being of all ages and ensuring healthy lives is crucial to sustainable growth. To effectively stop the spread of the virus and to maintain a healthy workplace for our employees, we regularly give out free masks and Covid 19 tests to our employees. We also use the advised method of personnel rotation with very good results.
Decent Work and Economic Growth
Promote sustained, inclusive, and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment, and decent work for all.
At TGS Hellas we believe that for a society to reach inclusive and sustainable economic growth, conditions must be created to allow people to have quality jobs that stimulate the economy while not harming the environment. The recent war in our region has pushed up energy prices for many consumers and businesses around the world, hurting households, industries, and entire economies – most severely in the developing world where people can least afford it. In this respect, we are trying to support the dependence on non-renewable resources and to improve overall conservation efforts fostered on a daily basis to encourage and implement digitization in our procedures, as part of the innovative strategy we want to implement.
