It was a desire to ‘do better’ for the environment that lead to the birth of DIVVY.
Up to 30% of the traffic in our CBDs is comprised of cars driving around looking for a parking space and so imagine the reduction in vehicle emissions and travel times that could be achieved if everyone could drive straight to a pre-booked parking space. DIVVY was created to unlock underutilised parking spaces and make them available for pre-booking, meaning less traffic, fewer emissions, shorter travel times and less stress.
Both our B2B parking solution, DIVVY Enterprise, and our consumer parking product, DIVVY Marketplace, help to make better use of existing parking spaces in our nation’s crowded CBDs and this means less cars on city streets and reduces the need for the provision of new and additional parking facilities. Conversely, when a business implements DIVVY Enterprise to manage their staff parking, it can also work to discourage employees from taking their car to work. For example, when a company chooses to charge their staff for parking via DIVVY, it encourages its workforce to find an alternative way to get to work, such as carpooling or public transport.
We have been working towards paperless parking since the beginning. With every generation of parking technology we have developed, the goal has been 100% digital cloud-based parking management, and that is what we offer our B2B clients. Car parks using the DIVVY parking solution can be operated and managed entirely without paper. With DIVVY’s QR code operated car park access controllers, there are no paper pull-tickets. For a 100-space car park, that equals up to 1.3 million paper pull-tickets saved every year. The DIVVY Enterprise real‑time parking data and reporting functions are housed in the cloud, so there are no paper reports.
We also endeavour to make environmentally sustainable choices in our workplace. We provide recycling bins for paper, cardboard, glass and aluminum for both office and personal waste. Our office tissues and paper towels, made from sustainable bamboo and sugarcane, are purchased from Who Gives A Crap, a B Corp certified company donating 50% of their profits to build toilets in the developing world.
To continue our commitment to making more environmentally sustainable business choices, our short‑term commitments are:
Our longer-term commitments to environmental sustainability include:
The advantages of a diverse and inclusive workforce are numerous and well-known and serve to benefit both the company and its employees. They range from increased creativity and productivity to happier employees.
The fostering of a diverse and inclusive workplace, where employees of different ages, cultural backgrounds, physical abilities and disabilities, races, religions, genders, and sexual orientations are welcome, has long been standard practice at DIVVY. For a workforce of only 29 people, we are proud to note that our employees have cultural backgrounds spanning four different continents, and 40% of positions in our management team are held by females.
To continue to support the diversity and inclusivity of our workforce, over the short term we are:
Our longer-term commitments to a diverse and inclusive workforce include:
DIVVY is proud to be a 100% Australian owned company. We are passionate not only about making a positive contribution to our nation by providing smarter parking and technology solutions, but about making a positive contribution to Australia’s economic development and prosperity too. DIVVY is unique in the Australian parking landscape in our focus on the in-house, onshore development and creation of new technology. We prioritise Australian services and products in the course of running our business, we make use of Australian contractors and service providers whenever possible and choose Australian as often as we can when sourcing parts, materials and manufacturing for our technology products.
To reinforce our commitment to Australian manufacturing, we aim to have our technology products certified to use the Australian Made and Owned logo by 2022. Trusted by 88% of Australians, products must undergo an assessment by a third-party accreditation system in order to use the logo.
To continue to strengthen our investment in the Australian economy, over the longer term we will prioritise our commitment to procuring goods and services from Australian organisations with an emphasis on purchasing Australian products from Australian businesses. We want to minimise our footprint by purchasing, whenever we can, products with low carbon miles.
The health and well being of our staff is paramount.
It is widely recognised that work-life balance is an essential aspect of a healthy work environment. Maintaining work-life balance helps reduce stress and leads to a healthier and more productive workforce.
Creating a flexible work environment is one of the best ways to meet the work-life balance of most employees. DIVVY offers employees flexible work hours, with start and finish times able to be varied around predetermined core hours, and the ability to work from home where applicable.
We also strive to improve the overall workplace experience for our employees by prioritising a healthy culture and cultivating a happy workplace environment.
Fresh fruit is provided for staff in our office, and we create regular opportunities for social connection, such as all-staff potluck lunches. To provide employees with regular opportunities for professional development, we run informal ‘Lunch and Learn’ sessions, where senior staff share their knowledge and insights with interested employees, and more formal ‘Innovation Sessions’, with external speakers visiting the DIVVY office to address interested staff about their area of expertise.
Additionally, the physical health and safety of our staff and visitors to our workplace is of the utmost importance. We are committed to providing a safe environment for all staff and visitors to our workplace, as outlined in our Work Health and Safety policy.
In the further pursuit of a healthy and happy workplace, in the short term we aim to:
