At Solvation, environmental stewardship and community impact are integral to how we operate. We believe responsible business practices strengthen both our clients and the communities we serve.

Environmental Responsibility

Solvation is committed to reducing our environmental impact as an integral part of our business strategy and daily operations. Our Environmental Policy applies across service delivery, procurement, and internal operations.

Client & Project Engagement

We evaluate the environmental impacts of our client engagements to ensure our work does not adversely affect the natural environment or the communities that depend on it.

Our approach includes:

• Assessing engagements based on project size, duration, environmental connection, and risk level
• Documenting our most significant engagements annually
• Implementing mitigation actions where needed
• Tracking effectiveness for continuous improvement

Responsible Procurement

We align our purchasing decisions with our environmental values by:

• Reviewing our most material procurement decisions annually
• Evaluating sustainability attributes such as recyclability and environmental certifications
• Adjusting practices to enhance environmental alignment

Internal Sustainability Practices

We commit to:

• Complying with all applicable environmental regulations
• Avoiding single-use disposable products
• Purchasing recycled-content and environmentally preferable office supplies
• Recycling all supported materials and identifying channels for hard-to-recycle items
• Ensuring electronics and appliances meet Energy Star or High Efficiency standards
• Sourcing locally whenever feasible

Continuous Improvement

We continuously identify, prevent, and mitigate environmental risks through due diligence, stakeholder engagement, and periodic policy review.

Workforce Development

At Solvation, we believe opportunity should not be limited by non-linear career paths. As part of our commitment to social impact, we actively invest in workforce development initiatives that expand access, strengthen retention, and support long-term career growth.

Empowering Returning Mothers

We intentionally recruit and support mothers returning to the workforce after a career break. Recognizing the barriers many returning professionals face, we provide structured pathways designed to promote confidence, skill relevance, and long-term success.

Our approach includes:

• Partnerships with re-entry platforms to expand inclusive hiring
• Structured onboarding and tailored “re-onboarding” support
• Mentorship and peer buddy programs
• Flexible, remote-first work design with phased return options
• 30-60-90-day development check-ins

We track hiring, retention, and participant feedback to continuously improve outcomes and ensure lasting impact.
