Corporate Social Responsibility

SKIPP Creative Video Agency has been a partner of CRS Netherlands for many years. We have a high ambition to be a sustainable company. Our company makes conscious choices to achieve a balance between People, Planet and Profit. We focus on new market opportunities, growth and innovation with benefits for people, society and the environment. Now and in the future.

CSR: How we work ourselves
We are also constantly looking for ways to improve our own way of working. We make our ecological footprint as small as possible. Prioritize diversity. And we drive innovation through our own organisation. Some examples:

Our office:

• Our office is completely CO2 neutral and has Energy Label A, furnished with sustainable (often circular) products. 
• Diversity in the workplace: When hiring new colleagues, we consciously pay attention to diversity and inclusion. Ultimately, we want to grow into an organization that is a balanced reflection of our society. 
• We encourage employees to travel by bicycle or public transport. 
• Chain responsibility: in our procurement and tendering processes, social criteria, such as diversity and inclusion, and environmental criteria are taken into account when selecting suppliers. We do this during annual supplier assessments that are part of our ISO 9001 management system. We have an internal code of conduct, whistleblower policy, privacy policy and ancillary positions.
  SKIPP is ISO 9001 certified, which means that all these processes are included in our management system and are externally audit every year.

Our fleet and CO2 emissions:

• Almost 85% of our fleet consists of fully electric cars. Of course, these are only charged with green electricity from renewable energy sources. T
• The CO2 emissions of our other vehicles and the flying noises that we make every year are immediately compensated.
  
  

Social return:

Because of the film recordings that we make all over the world, we are often confronted with major differences compared to our own existence.

In particular, the living conditions of children, often homeless, affects us enormously. Since 2007 we have adopted a number of children through the Healthy Malawi Foundation, a small organization set up by the Dutch Sandra Verbaan. This special woman has been selflessly working in Malawi for years and takes care of helpless children here. Through adoption and sponsorship she has set up a number of projects that can actually improve the quality of life of these helpless children.

But we also support a number of selected charities in the Netherlands, including the important Cancer Research in the Amsterdam Cancer Center of the VU Medical Center, for which we selflessly produced a mini documentary to emphasize the importance of cancer research. In the near future we will make more productions for the VU Medical Center for the benefit of cancer research.

Metakids, an organization that works for children with a horrible metabolic disease and who often do not grow old. We selflessly made a number of videos for Metakids and worked on a large outdoor campaign that was visible throughout the Netherlands.

Why are we doing this? Not for the name or fame, but simply because it feels good, it motivates us and we like to do our part for a better world.
