About Us >

 Environmental Policy

Our operational day-to-day activities are mostly office based, and by their nature, generally have minimal impact on the environment. However, we are keen to energetically encourage sound environmental practices. We recognise this as a responsible approach to protecting the environment and as an effective cost management practice.

We maintain environmental awareness within the business by advising staff on how to modify their work practices for environmental improvement.  We include our recycling practices in our staff induction programme.  Our administration team send regular Emails to remind staff to minimize, and where possible, recycle the waste materials produced in our business.

We encourage all of our managers to ensure that they and their teams minimise waste and recycle wherever possible.  This includes, but is not limited to: recycling our paper, cardboard boxes, toner cartridges and computer hardware.  We have provided recycling stations for all types of paper throughout our UK offices and this is being rolled out in the US as well.

The company will provide a working environment which complies with all current environmental legislation including the WEEE directive.  We have a relationship with PC World to recycle our computing hardware.

We manage operations such that we minimise our transport requirements.  We ask managers and staff to consider carefully alternative ways of conducting business before travelling long-distances.  We make extensive use of Email and tele-conference facilities to avoid non-essential travel.  We also support the use of bicycles and provide storage space for those who ride to work.

Employee-led schemes are supported by the business, such as the placing of posters supplied by the Carbon Trust promoting energy efficiency. It is now corporate policy for all non-essential computers, monitors and peripheral devices to be switched off over night, and all lighting is switched off overnight.
