Corporate Social Responsibility

Our commitment to the corporate world plays a particular role in the elaboration our company’s culture and management. Since we provide translation services to the international business community, we believe that acting responsibly and fairly is a top priority for a conscious corporation.

We define corporate social responsibility as actions that positively affect our clients, employees, suppliers and our society. We have adopted and support high standards of corporate social responsibility. We are aware that corporate social responsibility programs will improve our prestige and add value to our society.

We know that our business success depends on the development, evaluation and implementation of basic policies concerning human relations, the environment, and hiring.

Kalite Tercume takes responsibility for its effects on human issues, and economic, environmental and social areas that require social awareness.

Most people take social and environmental factors into consideration when they decide where to work, where to shop, what to buy and which products and services they can recommend to others.

We believe it is an economic imperative for corporations to participate in efforts to protect and decontaminate the environment by taking heed of people’s expectations, and we perceive this as an opportunity to create good relationships between the business world and society as a whole.

Our environmental policy dictates that we consciously take actions to minimize our environmental impact and use resources for purchasing, energy consumption, paper use, transportation, waste management and cleaning carefully without squandering them.

We produce partial foodstuff to provide for our in-house employees using the compost-based organic agriculture methods. So we allow the nature to regain the natural products.

We have committed ourselves to meet the requirements of our age without compromising on the rights of future generations. For the last decade we have been investing in advancing technologies that reduce waste and minimize paper consumption, and we also recycle.

Our e-invoicing services protect the environment by eliminating tons of paper use. We also reuse waste papers.

We turn off our lights, computers and electronic devices whenever possible in order to prevent energy waste.

Thanks to cutting edge technologies the heating and cooling systems in the offices of Kalite Tercume use less electricity.

Except for the in-house staff, Kalite Tercume employs 500 linguists who work at home, which corresponds to a fairly large reduction of fuel consumption and exhaust gas emissions.

We seek out opportunities to leave an uncontaminated and habitable world to future generations while developing the sustainability and productivity of our company.

Kalite Tercume either plays an active role in or contributes to social programs and various non-profit organizations. In addition, we allow our employees to make difference in the world providing them with support.

We participate in and actively support local and global humanitarian aid organizations such as LÖSEV (a foundation for children with leukemia), Turkey’s Spinal Cord Paralytics Association, Darülaceze (a public shelter), Darüşşafaka (a High School for Orphans), Beşir and Semerkand.

At Kalite Tercume we participate in blood donation programs with our staff every three months as part of our conscious corporate citizenship.

We maintain human and value focused relationships between our staff, clients, suppliers and others in order to have a positive impact on society.

Treating our staff fairly and commitment to high ethical values in our relationships with our employees are among our indispensable principles. We pay due care to provide our employees with their personal rights completely and on time as we respect human rights. We value and respect the ideas and recommendations of our staff and encourage them to actively participate in our business’s development process. The consequent rise in their motivation causes them to feel deeper loyalty to Kalite Tercume.

We provide training and self-development opportunities in cooperation with partner educational institutions inside and outside the company.

Our high quality translation services help our clients succeed by overcoming linguistic and cultural barriers. We do our best to express high ethical values in our relations with our clients, and we are especially motivated when they share the same values as us.
