Operating within the hire industry means single products are used over and over again in a sustainable cycle of hiring, servicing, re-purposing, re-hiring.

However, we believe that as a business we should aim to minimalise the impact we have on the world around us.

We are committed to continuously assessing and improving the way that we work – to ensure operational efficiency and lessen the impact of the footprint we leave.

At THX we support initiatives, both big and small, that contribute to achieving our sustainability goals. For example;

• We recently became FORS Gold Accredited – demonstrating our commitment to reducing our environmental impact.
• We have introduced the option for customers to select greener ‘Anytime’ slots for deliveries and collections. This enables fleet vehicles to be packed and dispatched in the most efficient way possible to reduce the number of  journeys required.
• We are in the process of moving our company sales fleet vehicles from petrol to electric.
• We have improved our waste facilities at our Superhub to make segregating waste ready for recycling even easier.
• We are bringing more sustainable products onto our hire fleet and working with an increasing number of carbon neutral suppliers.

Our HR team works hard to ensure that THX recruits ethically and attracts applicants from a wide range of backgrounds to increase diversity across the business.

Consequently, we have a fantastic team of people at THX – diverse in gender, race, and religion.

We are committed to ensuring a safe workplace for our team. We are a Living Wage Employer.

Investing in our colleagues is important. We believe in developing a scope of skills, from those core to specific roles to wider skills for personal and professional development. We proactively encourage and support team members to undertake learning for career development.  For example recent training includes;

• HGV training
• Forklift training
• Health and Safety training
• Management Training
• Marketing Qualifications

In addition, everyone in the company has free access to the LinkedIn Learning portal.

THX proactively supports access to work for people entering the workplace for the first time – such as school leavers.

We offer Hire Trainees and Apprentices the opportunity to gain experience across different aspects of the business from warehouse and workshop through to account management.

We endeavor to equip those in their early careers with self awareness, a range of transferable skills, and potential career direction.

Initiatives include;

• Active involvement in Rapid Relief Team – supporting communities in need
• Focus Payroll Giving Scheme
• Supporting employee fundraising efforts
• Donating regularly to a number of charitable causes
• Opportunities for customers to opt for a charitable donation on their behalf instead of an end of year gift.

High Standards of Governance

The THX Board is passionate about prioritising good governance practices to foster and environment of accountability and transparency.

By maintaining high standards of governance, we protect the interests of all our stakeholders – our employees, customers, and the wider community.

Through regular monitoring and continuous improvement, we strive to uphold ethical conduct, effective risk management, and sustainable business practices.

Accountability at all Levels of our Organisation

By incorporating Environment, Social, and Governance considerations into our business model, we strive to create long-term value for our business and all its stakeholders.

We understand that our employee, suppliers, customers, and investors want assurance that the decisions we make are in their best interests and that we are accountable for those decisions.
