Becoming more

sustainable together

Taking small and big steps towards our shared future

At EY we believe sustainability is everyone’s responsibility. You play an important role in building a more sustainable world. By embedding sustainability in everything we do, we help create and protect long term value for businesses, people and society.

Your ideas and actions can make a real difference. Discover how you and your colleagues can contribute to key sustainability and ESG challenges and help shape a better, more sustainable future.

Coffee & Tea

At EY, small choices make a big difference. Our Puro coffee and tea are sustainably produced and traded fairly. With the reusable CupXchange cups, you contribute to a smaller ecological footprint every day: good for you, better for the world.

CupXchange cups

You can find our reusable cups at our offices. They are transported emission-free and washed sustainably locally, in cooperation with partners who offer work to people at a distance from the labor market. The cups are made in the Netherlands from biobased materials: small choice, big effect.

Electric Fleet

From December 2025, our entire fleet will be fully electric. Prefer an even greener option? Then, of course, we also support traveling to our offices by public transport or bicycle.

Fruitful Office

With Fruitfull Office, we bring sustainability and health together. The fruit you find at EY comes from local growers as much as possible and matches the season. This is how we limit transport kilometers and you choose what nature has to offer at that moment. In addition, the deliveries are made in reusable and sustainable packaging: no unnecessary plastic, but a conscious choice for you and the planet.

Sustainable offices

EY's offices are being designed in an increasingly smarter and more sustainable way, from circular climate systems to sustainable ceilings to 100% green energy. This way, you are not only working on the future of your career, but also on the future of the world around you.

EY Ripples

Where expertise meets societal impact

At EY everyone can contribute, regardless of role. Whether in your daily client work or in community projects initiated by EY, together we make impact. With EY Ripples we use our knowledge and experience to create positive change for people, communities and the planet. You can contribute too whether it is helping young talent grow, supporting impact entrepreneurs or accelerating sustainable solutions. Every action counts.

Together we create small ripples that build into large waves of change and contribute to an inclusive and future-proof world.

AI Skills

Passport

Building a future together with responsible AI

At EY, we believe that technology is only truly valuable if everyone can participate. With the AI Skills Passport, part of EY Ripples, we help the next generation understand, apply and use AI responsibly. This is how we open doors to education, employment and a better working world.

What will you learn?

In about 10 hours, you'll learn at your own pace, including:
What AI is and what it isn't, the different types of AI and how they're already being applied today, why ethics is crucial for responsible AI, business AI applications, environmental sustainability and technology, how AI skills increase your employability in tomorrow's labor market.

What does it offer you?

Skills that count! After completion of the program:
You will receive an EY-Microsoft certificate to strengthen your resume, you will have access to a database of learning and career opportunities, and you will have a solid basis for further growth in an AI-driven world.

Why does it matter?

The gap between supply and demand is wide. AI skills are 2,000% more requested in vacancies and only one in ten employees receives AI training from their employer.
