With Dutch Remote, together with our clients and candidates, we want to contribute to a sustainable world. We do this in the first place by stimulating remote and hybrid working, so that there is less commuting and therefore less CO2 emissions. But we go one step further. We donate five percent of our income to organizations that stand up for a better climate. We do not ask our customers for a contribution for this; the money comes from our own income. When employers register with us and post a job opening with us, or when candidates register with us to find a dream job, they can contribute to fighting climate change at their own discretion! They can do so by making a personal choice from one of the themes below.
What are we concerned about?
We are deeply concerned about the disastrous climate change underway and the lack of sustainability. Our ambition is to contribute to our own and future generations’ quality of life. We see global warming as a concrete threat, now and in the future, which we will work with you to address.
We focus our donations on the following themes, all of which are dedicated to improving the climate:
Climate Change: Rapid global warming threatens the survival of life and biodiversity on Earth;
- Air pollution: Nearly 10% of all human deaths on Earth are caused by air pollution;
- Energy scarcity: 940 million people lack electricity and use highly polluting fuels to meet their energy needs.
We choose organizations with proven results
We donate only to organizations that are proven to be effective and therefore achieve real results. Research shows that some organizations are as much as 100 times more effective than others working on the same issues. Of course, we choose the effective organizations so that we can have a real impact and make a difference together with you. We base this on scientific methods from independent organizations such as Founders Pledge, Lets Fund and Giving Green. These show which charity organizations achieve the best results with the least cost. We make grateful use of the research of these independent organizations.
You influence our donations
So as a remote or hybrid worker looking for a job or as an employer looking for qualified staff, you have a direct influence on the issues we donate to. Do you want us to donate to climate change, air pollution or energy scarcity? You choose! In the employer or candidate profile, you choose one theme. We then donate in proportion to your choices.
We are transparent about our donations
Every year, Dutch Remote announces on this website which (charity) organizations have received donations from Dutch Remote and what they have achieved with it. Employers can also see in their employer profile how much they have (indirectly) contributed.
Post your vacancy or sign up as a remote or hybrid worker and contribute to sustainability and a better climate!
