Our Commitment to Eradicating Modern Slavery
Gervasy is committed to conducting business ethically and ensuring that modern slavery and human trafficking have no place in our operations or supply chain. We prohibit all forms of forced labour, child labour, and human trafficking and expect the same standards from our suppliers and partners. We are committed to respecting internationally recognised human rights and to identifying, preventing, and addressing risks of modern slavery within our activities and supply chains. As part of our broader sustainability approach, we ensure that our transition to Net Zero and our procurement practices are carried out responsibly and in a way that protects workers’ rights and promotes fair and ethical labour standards.
Our Net Zero Commitment
Gervasy is committed to achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2045. We will reduce emissions across Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3, prioritising real reductions and using neutralisation only for residual emissions that cannot be eliminated.

Our Reduction Targets
Long-term (Net Zero year 2045):
- Scope 1+2: 100% absolute reduction (0% neutralisation)
- Scope 3: 50% absolute reduction
and 50% neutralisation of residual emissions
Near-term (by 2030):
- Scope 1: 100% absolute reduction
- Scope 2: 100% absolute reduction
- Scope 3: 20% absolute reduction
Key Reduction Actions
Travel:
“Rail-first” approach for cross-border trips, increased remote support and training
Digital infrastructure:
Improve hosting efficiency and prioritise renewable-backed electricity procurement where available
Devices & consumables:
Maximise reuse, extend device lifespan (minimum 5 years), reduce waste and unnecessary shipments
Supplier engagement:
Sustainability review of strategic suppliers and progressive Scope 3 data improvement
Key Reduction Actions
Emissions are calculated in line with the GHG Protocol using an operational control boundary.
Where supplier-specific carbon data is not available, we use spend-based estimates and industry-average lifecycle factors.
Electricity emissions use UK Government conversion factors (DESNZ/BEIS).
Verification
Our emissions data has not been independently verified by a third party.
