Compiled in line with the GRI international standards for non-profit reporting, it covers the results of 2017-18 highlighting the key directions and achievements in the social dimension of the company\u2019s activities.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00ab<em>The responsibility is at the core of SoftServe. For many years, we\u2019ve been mobilizing our intellectual, financial and human resources within the company and using business approaches for social purposes<\/em>\u201d, says <strong>Taras Vervega<\/strong>, co-founder and BoD Member at SoftServe. \u201c<em>SoftServe\u2019s rapid growth deepened our global responsibility as well: now, we are open to an increased pool of opportunities to introduce the solutions for IT education and foster higher labor and education standards to build up the foundation for the further development of the company and local communities. And that is driving us every day.<\/em>\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the two consequent years, SoftServe\u2019s CSR strategy has been focusing primarily on three directions: talent development, strengthening the communities and improving IT education. As the top employer in Ukraine, SoftServe has paid much attention to the employees\u2019 satisfaction level and worked hard to ensure everyone is having equal opportunities for the growth and development within the company. It succeeded at bringing gender diversity, as in male-dominated IT industry it managed to increase female representation from 28% to 32% and witnessed the rise of females at top positions by 10%. An effective and sustainable education system developed and integrated across all company\u2019s offices resulted in having 7000 associates participated in more than 900 training courses run by SoftServe.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The company has definitely reached the new heights in developing and advancing IT education by both, stand-alone internal initiatives and the ones implemented in cooperation with the industry organizations and IT clusters. The SoftServe IT Academy, one of Ukraine\u2019s largest educational platforms to prepare graduates for the successful career start in IT industry, seems to scale fantastically: in 2018, it grew the pool of graduates up to 1000 and doubled the number of those hired by the company after the program completion. In the meanwhile, SoftServe contributed to the launch of 6 IT Bachelor\u2019s programs at the universities and opening of 3 ultramodern IoT and Robotics laboratories.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Atop to that, SoftServe enjoys having a deeply-rooted culture of corporate volunteering and charity. In 2017-2018, its Charity \u00abOpen Eyes\u00bb finished a dozen of critically important social projects both in Ukraine and abroad with the total costs of $232.000. A detailed account of all these projects is reflected in the report as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To check the report and get more details on SoftServe\u2019s CSR activities, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cdnssinc-prod.softserveinc.com\/pdf\/softserve-social-responsibility-report-2017-2018.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">follow the link<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p><b>About SoftServe<\/b><\/p>\n<p>SoftServe is a digital authority that advises and provides at the cutting-edge of technology.
