Outset becomes a Benefit Company to highlight its strong social ethical policies

Italian weighing systems company Outset has changed its legal form and become a “Benefit Company.” Outset says this move, made on 30 December 2021, formally recognises how it has established a raft of social responsibility and ethical policy commitments in recent years, all of which are now an integral part of the company's DNA.

“As a B Corp we operate responsibly, following sustainable and transparent criteria, which are rewriting the way of doing business globally,” says Luca Toneatti of Outset.

A Benefit Company is one that integrates into its corporate purpose, in addition to profit objectives, the aim of having a positive impact on society and the biosphere, says Outset.

"First of all, we thought about the people who work with us, their well-being and happiness, the enhancement of their talents and the creation of new jobs," says Luca Toneatti, export area executive at Outset.

"We aim to create a healthy and meritocratic environment where people are happy in the company and put passion into what they do."

He has also committed the company to pursuing the creation of the best possible conditions for attracting and developing talented people.

In July 2022 Outset obtained the B Corp certification for producing positive effects on the environment, territory and people.

"We observe the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability," says Toneatti.

"As a B Corp we operate responsibly, following sustainable and transparent criteria, which are rewriting the way of doing business globally. Like all B Corp businesses, we strongly believe in a new model of participatory economy that reconciles the creation of economic value with the realisation of the collective good."
