SWEP Sustainability report 2021

Supporting our neighbors, near and far Community engagement

SWEP China

At every SWEP site, we make an effort to engage with the local community and make a positive impact on that area. Recent events, however, have inspired co- workers in Sweden to look further afield and extend their support to children affected by events in Ukraine. They set up a donation page to back UNICEF’s work in the area, and have spread the word throughout SWEP’s global network to encourage more people to contribute. So far, the campaign has raised several thousand euros and SWEP International AB have pledged to match the sum raised by employees, in effect doubling the donation.

Plogging is a recent craze that has flourished across the world and has been a big hit in our Suzhou site. It’s a combination of jogging and litter-picking, so the events organized by co-workers have helped to keep people fit and tidy up the local environment.

SWEP Slovakia

Supporting our neighbors

Our co-workers in Kosice are proud to be active members of their community, and have held a number of activities in that spirit. These have included twice- yearly blood donation drives, collections to support local people in social difficulties, and a fund-raising event for a nearby dog shelter.

SWEP Americas

Every year, SWEP staff take part in mock interviews with senior students at Union High School, Tulsa. The aim is to help students improve their interview skills and to provide them with some useful feedback, helping to prepare them for entering the labor market.
