Our ESG
Supplier diversity policy
Living Business™ recognizes the importance of having a diverse and inclusive supply chain. We are therefore committed to developing mutually beneficial relationships with suppliers with ownership from underrepresented groups. This means we give preference to suppliers with small, minority-owned, women-owned, people of determination-owned, veteran-owned and LGBTQ- owned business enterprises, when all business considerations are determined to be equal among competitive suppliers.
The purpose of Living Business'™ supplier diversity policy is to provide opportunities to diverse suppliers that satisfy our standards while supporting our clients in achieving their own corporate diversity goals.
