There’s no excuse for inaction when you witness it. At Unite, we’re proud to support the UN’s Orange The World initiative and the 16 Days of Activism campaign to prevent and end violence against women and girls – one of the most pervasive human rights violations worldwide. To contribute to this important cause, we’re organising a bake sale. The proceeds will support efforts to combat violence against women, with donations going to the Frauen- und Kinderschutzhaus in Köthen and the Verein Frauen für Frauen in Leipzig. Together, we can create a safer, more equitable world for everyone. Learn more: https://brnw.ch/21wP4sM #NoExcuse #OrangeTheWorld #WeUnite #16Days

Making procurement decisions count In a recent interview with CPO Magazine, our Executive Board Member, Christel Constant, highlighted how indirect procurement can unlock untapped opportunities for businesses striving to be efficient and sustainable. At Unite, we’re leading this evolution by simplifying procurement processes through a platform that seamlessly bridges ad-hoc demands and recurring catalogue-based demands. From centralising financial processes to embedding ESG transparency and CO2 reporting, our platform empowers businesses to create more resilient supply chains while achieving sustainability goals. We’re excited about the future especially as AI-based technologies push the boundaries of what’s possible in procurement. Curious about how we can scale and transform your procurement process?

🌿 Stress awareness at Unite: we're in the green! 🌿 Stress isn’t a major concern for us as a company – our company-wide workplace health survey proves it. Using the Comprehensive Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire, we assessed 34 areas, from work-life balance to leadership quality and remote work satisfaction. Of course, as a dynamic organisation that’s constantly evolving, we do experience periods of increased pressure in certain teams or with individual employees. We’re fully aware of this and provide targeted support through counselling, workshops, and other measures. For example, our Unite Academy offers internal training on stress management, such as "Relaxing through the Day," which helps participants gain a better understanding of their stress mechanisms and learn techniques to handle stress more effectively. We're also working on a new health platform that will provide all employees with access to topics such as mental health, mindfulness, and leadership in multiple languages. Together, we’re making stress management part of our success! 💪 #StressAwarenessWeek #MentalHealth #WeUnite #WellBeing
