Community Engagement & Local Partnerships

Atlas Professionals aims to engage with communities in which it operates and establish local partnerships. For example, in 2022 we have collaborated with DOB Academy and OffshoreWind4Kids to promote the Offshore Wind industry during various events, and participated in sustainable initiatives of our Clients, such as the Boskalis Beach Cleanup Tour in the Netherlands. Additionally, we constantly collaborate with local training providers for our Training Programmes.

Charitable Support

Research shows that being kind is good for both sides - so collaborating with members of our community to raise money or volunteer for worthy causes can help us feel more connected with one another.

To ensure this is the case, Atlas Professionals encourages local teams to participate in charitable events within their local communities and is happy to share fundraising successes across the organisation. So far, we have witnessed charitable bake sales, sponsored runs and walks, and donations of gifts to local children’s hospitals at Easter and Christmas.

Policies are communicated both internally and externally to stakeholders, with policies forming part of the induction training of all Staff. Refresher training, in the form of ethical dilemmas, is also planned periodically to ensure ongoing compliance.

Internally, both Atlas Professionals and its Staff have supported Staff and their families who have been displaced by the war in Ukraine.

Human Rights & Modern Slavery

Atlas Professionals is committed to ensuring that there is no modern slavery or human trafficking in our supply chains or in any part of our business. Our Anti-Slavery & Human Trafficking Policy reflects our commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business relationships, implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure slavery and human trafficking are not taking place anywhere in our supply chain.

To ensure that our partners and suppliers comply with applicable laws, we carry out third-party due diligence assessments and verifications on a risk-based approach, which are reviewed by the relevant internal stakeholders.

We have controls in place via our ISO certi ed recruitment and placement processes to ensure that the policy is adhered to, including right to work checks, minimum age restrictions, a Code of Conduct communicated throughout global operations, discussing living and working conditions with our Clients and Professionals, and widely communicated complaints and discipline and grievance procedures in place.

Policies are communicated both internally and externally to stakeholders, with policies forming part of the induction training of all Staff. Refresher training, in the form of ethical dilemmas, is also planned periodically to ensure ongoing compliance.

Key performance indicators are used to monitor effectiveness of the policy, with the KPI of reports received from Staff, the public, or law enforcement agencies to indicate that modern slavery practices have been identified remaining consistently at zero over the previous 12-month period.

Atlas Professionals are attested to the ILO Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) 2006, to guarantee minimum standards of living and working conditions for our seafarers.
