Partnership with BITC Yusen Logistics UK, has become a member of Business in the Community (BITC), the Prince’s Responsible Business Network, and joins over 600 businesses who are committed to achieving greater social and environmental impact. BITC has members across the UK, Glasgow to Avonmouth, Northampton to Heathrow, who are working with communities to create thriving places for people to live and work. BITC brings businesses together to tackle some of the biggest issues facing communities across the UK to create a fairer and healthier society. This has been at the core of BITC’s agenda since it was founded in 1982 and earned the support of the then Prince of Wales, who became the organisation’s Royal Founding Patron. Since then, BITC has campaigned to reduce inequalities across the UK focussing on race, gender, wellbeing, climate action and access to employment and skills. These campaigns have been led and supported by business leaders who believe in putting responsible business at the heart of their organisations. Today, BITC works with over 600 businesses representing over 20% of the UK workforce.
We are really excited to have joined Business in the Community to help us to create and implement a clear plan of action to deliver against the responsible business agenda. Yusen Logistics are committed to continuous improvement in all our business activities delivered through our Kaizen culture and the partnership with BITC will further enable us deliver our ambition to improve our impact on society
