We\u2019ve always been passionate about our social and environmental impact, so we wanted to prove it! In 2021, we\u2019ve set ourselves the goal of becoming <strong>B Corp Certified<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>B Corporations are companies who value purpose as much as profit. They \u201cmeet the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency, and legal accountability.\u201d There are currently 3,800+ B Corp certified companies worldwide &#8211; and we want to be one of them!<\/p>\n<p>To become B Corp certified, businesses have to score 80\/200 points in five key areas: <strong>Governance, Workers, Community, Environment<\/strong> and <strong>Customers<\/strong>. So far, Work.Life have submitted our assessment with<strong> 91.5 points<\/strong>, and are in a queue to be audited by a B Lab analyst. In the meantime, we thought we&#8217;d catch you up on our journey! To find out more about why Work.Life wanted to pursue B Corp certification, we spoke to our Head of Marketing and passionate <strong>B Corp committee leader<\/strong>, Sarah Sich.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sarah_youve_been_the_driving_force_behind_our_B_Corp_journey_so_far_How_did_you_first_find_out_about_B_Corp\"><\/span><strong>Sarah, you&#8217;ve been the driving force behind our B Corp journey so far. How did you first find out about B Corp?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It took three encounters with the idea of B Corp before I decided to really put together a case for pursuing it at Work.Life.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, I was talking to a friend who works in fashion about what they\u2019re doing for CSR and she mentioned that they were looking into getting B Corp certified. This set me off on an all-nighter where I stayed up researching about it, as well as other certifications out there for businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Then, I was reading Courier Magazine and came across a piece talking about brands like Patagonia and Cook (both B Corp brands), who have proven that having a social mission and prioritising non-commercial items doesn\u2019t mean shunning business success.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, not long after, I was at an awards ceremony for Escape the City, and a representative from B Lab was there to talk about B Corp. That\u2019s when I thought \u2013 OK, this is a sign! This is what Work.Life should be doing.<\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19681\" style=\"font-size: 16px;\" src=\"https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Why-we-want-to-become-b-corp-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"735\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Why-we-want-to-become-b-corp-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Why-we-want-to-become-b-corp-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Why-we-want-to-become-b-corp-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_does_B_Corp_relate_to_WorkLife\"><\/span><strong>How does B Corp relate to Work.Life?<br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Work.Life is a workspace business driven by our passion for <strong>employee wellbeing<\/strong> and<strong> happiness<\/strong>. Pursuing B Corp will help us expand that to other important impact areas such as the <strong>environment<\/strong> and<strong> communities<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>As a provider, we also have a duty to our members to ensure we\u2019re providing <strong>sustainable workspaces<\/strong>. For a business our size and a brand with our mission, it just felt like the right thing to do. Beyond that, it also has many commercial benefits:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Attract new members (60% of consumers are more likely to buy a service\/product if the business has clear social or environmental values)<\/li>\n<li>Build on our amazing company culture and attract new team members (48% of certified businesses found that prospective staff were attracted to them specifically because of their certification)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_do_WorkLife_want_to_achieve_by_becoming_B_Corp_certified\"><\/span><strong>What do Work.Life want to achieve by becoming B Corp certified?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The main achievement is to have <strong>better company processes<\/strong> which ensure <strong>environmental<\/strong> and <strong>social impact<\/strong> is always considered as part of all of our decision making.<\/p>\n<p>The certification will also act as a clear sign to all stakeholders that we\u2019re running a <strong>caring<\/strong> and <strong>ethical business<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, we are looking forward to joining the already 3,800+ community of businesses who are certified and having that support network to continue to improve our impact score.<\/p>\n<p>I also really think that in 5 years, more and more businesses from different industries will become certified and there\u2019ll be no reason to work with companies or suppliers who aren\u2019t. So we don\u2019t want to be on that side of business when everyone does come to realise that this is the future!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-19682\" src=\"https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/becoming-b-corp-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"735\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/becoming-b-corp-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/becoming-b-corp-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/work.life\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/becoming-b-corp-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_involved_in_the_B_Corp_certification_process\"><\/span><strong>What\u2019s involved in the B Corp certification process?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The first step is of course getting buy-in from the business and the team! In our case, that was pretty easy as we\u2019re all a really great bunch of humans.<\/p>\n<p>The second step is filling in the assessment to figure out what your current score is (80 is required to submit your assessment to B Lab).<\/p>\n<p>The third step is planning out what areas you\u2019re going to pursue and commit to making the changes required to gain more points.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, it\u2019s making those changes, which can vary from implementing ways to measure\/track new metrics, creating a new policy, updating processes and training, etc. I\u2019d recommend <strong>creating a committee<\/strong> of people in the team to do this as you\u2019ll require knowledge and decision-makers from areas such as <strong>HR<\/strong>, and<strong> facilities<\/strong> to input and sign off on changes as you go.<\/p>\n<p>Most importantly, you should be <strong>communicating<\/strong> everything you\u2019re doing to the whole business \u2013 the certification isn\u2019t a tick box, it ensures a new way of working &amp; decision making which impacts the way everyone works. It\u2019s also so important that the whole company understands what is being done and why.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_the_next_step\"><\/span><strong>What&#8217;s the next step?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We want to be the best business we can be, so the journey doesn&#8217;t end here.
