In 2015, all United Nations member states adopted the Sustainable Development Goals—17 interconnected objectives designed to address the world's most pressing challenges, from poverty and inequality to climate change and environmental degradation. These goals create a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future.

At HigherRing, we've focused our impact strategy on three SDGs where we can create meaningful, measurable change through our business model and operations.

Guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals

Creating Quality Remote Jobs across North America

We provide stable, well-compensated positions with comprehensive benefits to experienced, talented team members across the United States and Canada—from customer support specialists and ecommerce operations experts to full-charge bookkeepers. Every team member earns a living wage or higher—we've built our entire business model around the principle that fair compensation isn't a luxury, it's a baseline requirement.

Our team members receive competitive pay, comprehensive benefits, professional development opportunities, paid volunteer time, and the flexibility of remote work in communities where these opportunities create meaningful economic impact. Through profit sharing and employee stock ownership, we're building shared prosperity, not just employment.

We've maintained carbon-neutral operations since 2022. We measure our complete Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions—including team member home offices, travel, and technology infrastructure—then work systematically to reduce emissions at the source.

For emissions we can't eliminate, we invest in verified climate projects through Bonneville Environmental Foundation and Seatrees. As a 1% for the Planet member since 2019, we've contributed $108,427 in lifetime donations to environmental partners, committing 1% of total revenue, not just profits
