--- title: CSR url: https://www.rssinfrastructure.com/csr/ updated: 2026-09-29 --- # CSR [Home](https://www.rssinfrastructure.com) / Error 404  Trusted by our customers # Corporate Social Responsibility Building for the future: taking responsibility [MAKE ENQUIRY](https://www.rssinfrastructure.com/contact/?service=General%20enquiry#gform_wrapper_1) [CASE STUDIES](https://www.rssinfrastructure.com/news/social-value/)  At RSS Infrastructure, corporate social responsibility covers three commitments: reducing our environmental impact on the way to Net Zero by 2050, creating social value in the communities we work in, and supporting the Armed Forces community. We hold ISO 14001, are a Disability Confident Leader and hold the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme Gold Award. ## Taking responsibility We don’t just focus on completing projects within our scope. Our work affects a wider community, and we take that responsibility seriously. That’s why we prioritise safety and productivity for everyone involved, from our clients to our employees and beyond. We are committed to making a positive difference by engaging with people on and off site: reducing our impact on the environment, opening up careers to people from underrepresented groups, and supporting charities, schools and those who have served. ## Evidence you can check Clients increasingly ask suppliers to evidence their environmental and social performance in tenders, so we keep ours documented: a published Carbon Reduction Plan, ISO 14001 certification, and case studies with real results. Examples include more than £100,000 raised for the Royal British Legion and over 120 students inspired by Design a Railway Station for 2030. The standards behind them are independently assessed, not self-declared. Each commitment below has its own page with the detail. ## Our three commitments Find out more about each part of our CSR. ### Sustainability - Committed to Net Zero by 2050, with a published Carbon Reduction Plan. - ISO 14001 certified environmental management. - Battery-powered tools and efficient site lighting.
