Axis’ Three Pillars
We have identified three interconnected pillars that hold us up as a responsible business – Our People, Our Community and Our Environment.
Our People
We believe that people are our most valuable asset. We outline our goals and achievements encompassing: Equality, Diversity and Inclusion; Inclusive Recruitment; Wellbeing and Engagement; Training and Development; and Health and Safety.
Our Community
At Axis CLC, we are dedicated to contributing to local communities and are passionate about making a positive difference across the areas in which we work. Through social value, we work collaboratively with employees, clients, and stakeholders to tackle societal inequalities and improve lives for generations to come.
Our Environment
We take action to protect the environment for future generations. We work with our supply chain and our stakeholders to cut carbon, use sustainable products, and support greener communities.
Our Group Values
Our six company values form the foundations of our Responsible Business.
Trust
We are built on trust.
We deliver on our promises, and we do the right thing. We work in a way that is honest and fair. We value transparency and act with professionalism and integrity towards our customers, our partners and each other.

Everything we do begins and ends with our customers. We seek to understand their needs and deliver excellence. Everyone at Axis CLC has a role to play in building long-term client relationships based on the quality of our people, the value of our services and the high standards we set.
Teamwork
We succeed together.
We are inclusive, diverse and together – we work as one team. Our people are passionate about knowledge sharing, adopting best practices and embracing new ideas to ensure we consistently deliver the highest quality projects to our clients.
Expertise
We invest in our people.
We equip our people with the knowledge, skills, and expertise to deliver quality service every time. We also invest in technology and best practices to continuously improve the services we offer. We challenge ourselves to find new ways of helping our customers achieve their goals.
Impact
