Corporate Social Responsibility
A corporate climate that matches our ambitions
At Protime, we work all year round to make our environment one of the best workplaces in Europe. This ambition is reflected in our daily work:

A real attention for the protection of the environment
The environment is not a "fashionable subject", it is a vital cause in which everyone must invest. This means taking small steps on a daily basis, taking action and breaking habits. And not just in our private lives.
In addition to equipping the company's buildings with intelligent LED lighting that works exclusively on a timer principle, Protime wants to go further. Together with three partners, the company has invested in environmental protection and biodiversity. How do they do this? By housing and caring for several colonies of bees on a specially created flowerbed next to the head office in Mechelen (Belgium).

Why bees?
Biodiversity is essential for our well-being, yet we have already lost more than 30% of all wildlife in recent decades. The extinction of the bee, the main pollinating insect, is one of the main reasons for this worrying phenomenon. By maintaining bee populations and providing enough additional food for wild bees, we want above all to allow biodiversity to continue for longer. So that our future generations can benefit from it.

Time for future generations
We cannot say it enough: time is precious. That's why we believe it's our responsibility to offer time for society. When it came time to write down our company's mission, it was clear to Protimers that future generations and the time needed to develop them for a promising future were important. We are therefore determined to make this ambition a reality by supporting good causes (associations, NGOs, etc.) especially if they work with children.
This way, Protimers have the opportunity to give their time to help during their working hours. Examples include Sogeha in Belgium (which organises summer camps for underprivileged children) and the Dierendal Children's Farm in the Netherlands (an educational farm run by volunteers).
This corresponds, approximately, to more than 3600 hours / year that we willingly offer to the future of our society.
