Our Green Office

In order to manage our environmental footprint, we have implemented a ‘go green’ policy in our offices. Waste reduction, reduced resource consumption and energy efficiency are just some of the ways in which we are working towards an eco-friendly office.   

While a full list of our green practices can be found in our Environmental Policy, here are some of the ways we are being more conscious: 

Transport 

We minimise the energy impact of travel: – 

• We encourage our workforce to travel to work by public transport and where possible, by walking; 

• We encourage the use of video conferencing and audio call technology to reduce travel for business meetings.  

Energy 

We conserve energy wherever possible: – 

• Auto-screen save (on monitors) after five minutes; 

• All non-critical equipment is switched off when not needed;  

• Low-energy electrical equipment is preferred for purchase.  

Waste reduction and recycling 

We reduce, re-use and recycle waste: – 

• We operate a near paperless office, with cloud-based software replacing the need for printing;  

• We recycle paper wherever possible; 

• When printing is required, automatic double side printing to all network printers; 

• Return toner cartridges to suppliers for re-use;  

• Re-use printed paper for internal work whenever possible;  

• Re-cycle old computers where possible; 

• We have eliminated paper and plastic cups in the office; 

• We don’t buy plastic water bottles;  

• We bring our own tupperware for lunchtime takeaways.’
