The firm’s certification follows an 18-month-long assessment process which considered, among other things, its efforts to increase women’s representation in senior management to 35 per cent and to transition to 100 per cent renewable electricity across its Cork, Dublin and Galway offices.

RDJ is set to reduce its carbon footprint by five per cent annually and is advancing its digital transformation, targeting fully digital operations by 2030.

Jamie Olden, the firm’s managing partner, said: “We were delighted to achieve B Corp certification, which is another step evidencing our commitment to building a law firm that leads with purpose.

“Our people and clients are at the heart of this — we are grateful to work alongside forward-thinking businesses that share our vision, and we have 290 people who want to continue to make a meaningful impact where possible.

“This certification strengthens our dedication to driving positive change and holding ourselves accountable to the highest standards of transparency, social impact, and environmental responsibility.

“We will also continue to work closely with our clients, advising on ESG regulations and solidifying our position as a strategic partner in the green transition.”

Chief operations officer Tom Noonan, who led the certification process, added: “We see this as the end of the beginning of our sustainability journey.

“B Corp has provided us with a valuable framework to measure our impact, refine our sustainability strategy, and drive continuous improvements.

“From reducing our carbon footprint to enhancing employee engagement and supporting clients during their ESG transition, this is an opportunity for us to lead by example.

“We are committed to maintaining this momentum and ensuring that every step forward delivers tangible benefits for our people, our clients, and the communities we serve.”
