After registering with EcoVadis earlier in the year and following a rigorous assessment process Hallam has been awarded the EcoVadis bronze medal, a prestigious recognition that reflects the quality of a Company’s sustainability principles and systems. The assessment covers four themes – Environment, Labour and Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.

The assessment places Hallam in the top 35% of companies globally, on a par with leading businesses across all industries.
