Today, [on 11 December 2018], 16 enterprises providing public services and services of general interests have been awarded the CEEP CSR Label 2018-2019. The awarding ceremony was held in the premises of the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions (SALAR, member of CEEP Sweden) in Stockholm, and jointly organised by CEEP and CEEP Sweden. A compendium of practices from enterprises awarded was also circulated.
“Throughout Europe, providers and employers of public services are particularly conscious of the impact their operations have on the society and the environment. Awarding CEEP CSR Labels is for us an important demonstration that public services’ providers are now doing more than fulfilling their services” said Filippo Brandolini, CEEP Vice-President.
Sophie Thörne, President of CEEP Sweden, also emphasised the importance of CSR for public services’ enterprises and organisations in Sweden. “The CEEP CSR Label is a very important benchmarking exercise and is really inspiring for CEEP Sweden and our members. It gives credit to the hard work they are doing and gives them recognition for their activities.”
Corporate social responsibility has become a key element for the management of public services. CEEP created the CEEP-CSR Label in 2008, as an answer to the need of members and enterprises providing public services to be recognised for their activities in the field of CSR, whilst no label dedicated to public services’ providers existed at European level.
With the increased importance of the role played by labels in Public Procurement following the 2014 Directive which is now being implemented in Member States, the CEEP CSR Label has gained in visibility and recognition, bringing a clear added value to the awarded enterprises.
