The Surpluss, a global climate technology company, has formed a collaborative partnership with Al Noor Training Centre for Persons with Disabilities, an institution that supports People of Determination.
According to the two parties, the agreement aims to enhance collaboration between private sector companies to promote social cooperation, diversity in the workplace, and sustainable operations, encouraging a higher commitment from the private sector to include People of Determination in the workforce.
Rana Hajirasouli, founder of The Surpluss, commented: “Using our technology business as a force for good is one of our commitments as a Certified B Corp™. We are honored to be able to play a small role in the outstanding work that Al Noor Training Centre is already doing. We wanted to use this opportunity to allow companies within our network to access Al Noor for collaborations, using the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals as their North Star.”
The partnership also expands to resource and knowledge sharing to enhance awareness of diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
“Social sustainability should be at the forefront of climate-related efforts and can provide an opportunity for organizations to enhance the breadth of their diversity and inclusion (D&I) policies, as well as engage with the centre in novel ways that make business sense, moving away from a CSR approach into more holistic engagements with longevity in mind,” added Hajirasouli.
Ranjini Ramnath, Director of Al Noor Training Centre for Persons with Disabilities, said: “We at Al Noor are thrilled to announce our collaboration with Surpluss. We commend the Surpluss team for their patience and dedication in understanding our unique challenges and devising innovative solutions. We eagerly anticipate implementing these ideas to maximize the benefits for our students.”
