İş Leasing reflects the “quality” of its services also on its social responsibility activities.

While advancing to achieve its goals in line with its strategy of “Sustainable, High-Quality and Profitable Growth”, İş Leasing engages in various activities to contribute to social life and the environment within the framework of its corporate social responsibility approach. In this context, the Company has adopted the goal of contributing to social life at the highest level and taking into account the interests of all its stakeholders, making investments that will set an example for all segments of the society, the industry and the business world, and that will create tangible benefits. At İş Leasing, corporate social responsibility issues are handled by the Human Resources and Marketing Departments.

Believing that without social welfare, no benefit can be offered to the society and the country, İş Leasing reflects the “quality” of its services also on its social responsibility activities and takes firm steps forward with the support of its stakeholders on the road to a sustainable future. In this sense, it considers supporting those in need with donations and aids in every field required by social solidarity as a basic principle of its social responsibility approach. In this context, donations were made to Mor Çatı (Women’s Shelter Foundation) on March 8, International Women’s Day. Besides, donations are made to the Turkish Education Foundation’s (TEV) Scholarship Fund on behalf of the employees for celebrating the birthday of the Company’s employees.

In addition to all steps it took during the pandemic period for its employees, their families, relatives and all other stakeholders, İş Leasing immediately delivered its aid to the hospitals in need, with the awareness of corporate social responsibility, for the protection of healthcare professionals.

İş Leasing cares about the world we live in and values our forests, one of the biggest sources of oxygen. In the light of this understanding, it supported the aid campaign organized to contribute to the afforestation efforts after the forest fire in Hatay in 2020.

In order to increase financial inclusion and literacy, İş Leasing supports the Association of Financial Institutions in events and briefings about leasing and its advantages as prepared by the relevant association, and also ensures that all stakeholders are informed by providing information on this field via its website.

Electronic devices that are out of use as a result of renovation investments made in parallel with the rapidly-evolving technology are donated to schools in need. İş Leasing will continue to do its best to fulfill its responsibilities in line with the aim of offering sustainable value and benefit to all its stakeholders and society based on the policies and practices encompassing open and transparent corporate governance.
