ekko launches incentives platform for ESG conscious employees

ekko has launched a first-of-its-kind incentives platform to meet the demands of ESG conscious employees

IN BREIF:

- The new solution provides employees with a recycled plastic debit card and an award-winning app that calculates the carbon footprint of every purchase in real-time with nudges on how to shop more sustainably

- The card plants trees and saves plastic from entering our oceans as it’s used, and every tap is carbon offset in partnership with Gold Standard

- Organisations have their own bespoke dashboards showing their team's impact, the forest they’ve planted and the plastic they’ve saved; the solution also allows teams to compete on their sustainable impact and reduced carbon footprint every-day

What does this mean?

Speaking on the launch of the ekko incentives solution, the company’s co-founder and CEO, Oli Cook commented: “The environment is an emotional subject and something we feel strongly about as a society. Our mission is to empower millions of people and businesses around the world to have a positive impact on the environment around them. “Regardless of industry, every business has an obligation to improve its impact on the planet and support their people. Our real-time, innovative solution gives your teams meaningful, measurable and tangible understanding of their impact and how to make positive steps, whilst giving business leaders the tools to engage their teams and report their impact. In doing so, the solution helps businesses on their own sustainability journeys.”
