  • Our CR strategy, including environmental initiatives, is very important to the firms strategy and as a trainee you are given the freedom to get as involved in CR as you like, (including starting new initiatives, etc).

  • There is a big emphasis on recycling. There are a number of recycling bins and individual desk bins have now been removed to make sure that people get up and dispose of their rubbish responsibly.

  • Our firm has won recognition for its efforts to reduce carbon emissions, most noticeably with an initiative to replace the firms printer systems.

  • Seems to place importance on this although removing bins from desks was not popular.

  • Environmental efforts are key, and the firm recently implemented a new print system which is saving roughly 50,000 A4 sheets of paper per month.

  • The firm invested in a new printing system, halving paper consumption in the first month of use.

    Helpful?
  • The firm is aware of its green credentials, and encourages a cycle to work scheme, recycling, and the reduction of the volume of printing. We are also encouraged to turn off all computers and monitors to minimise energy consumption during non-working hours.

  • The office lights are on timer systems so they turn off after a certain period of inactivity. The firm operates a cycle to work scheme and in 2010 we rolled out a new printer system which was designed to reduce paper waste (and reduced our paper consumption dramatically in the first month). Many departments have now become paperless and it is envisaged that this will be rolled out to the whole firm.

  • Each floor has a number of recycling bins (including those for plastic drinking cups) and the facilities team is keen on having computers turned off overnight and lights only being used where necessary.
