Ricoh UK was shortlisted for Best CSR/ESG Initiative at the 2023 CIPD People Management Awards. The awards are the benchmark of excellence in HR, L&D and OD, recognising outstanding work by both national and international organisations, regardless of sector or size.
Ricoh was nominated for its successful integration of the social value challenge with the company’s L&D Emerge initiative. This year, over 80 Ricoh UK employees worked to deliver social value to their designed area of the UK.
This included organising and delivering CV and interview workshops, gifts in kind and fundraising, as well as raising awareness of the global climate crisis through the development of a climate crisis workshop targeted at young people in primary schools. Through these efforts,
Ricoh delivered over £149,000 of social value to 12 UK counties in total, working with over 20 different delivery partners and impacting hundreds of people. Partners which Ricoh has worked with include Leeds Hospital Charity, The Forward Trust and Turning Tides.
