HR Outsourcing Companies Going Green
HR Outsourcing Tip: Going Green
As I keep in touch with friends in various HR Outsourcing companies around the state, I have noticed a common theme arising. Many of these HR Outsourcing companies are starting to go green. The company I work for has been green for about a year now and by doing so has saved money and helped the environment. Getting a company to go green can take some time getting started and used to but once the ball is rolling you will find it is easy to contribute and do your part. As an HR Outsourcing professional I go around to different companies and see how managers and owners operate their business. What I have noticed is that some businesses are more environmentally conscious than others. I have compiled a list from various sources for HR Outsourcing companies as well as any other company that wants to save some green by going green.
- Buy recycled and Post-consumer office supplies as well as reusable and energy efficient appliances and products.
- Example: Reusable batteries and energy efficient dish washers and microwaves.
- Print only necessary documents
- Print on both sides of pages, and use PowerPoint slides for presentations. This will save money on paper and toner supplies.
- Green your Commute
- Carpool, ride a bike or take public transportation
- Turn off your computer and monitor at night
- Turning off your computer and monitor at night will save energy and reduce electric bills considerably.
- Bring in a mug or water bottle from home
- Reduce or eliminate use of paper and Styrofoam cups
- Start up or utilize a Recycling program
- Many companies I have worked with don’t even have a recycling program. Start by setting up extra garbage cans made exclusively for recycled materials.
Whether you are a HR Outsourcing professional working in a HR Outsourcing company or you work in an automotive shop, recycling is a simple way to help the environment and save your company money. While searching the internet one day I found this website. This a good website to find recycling centers for all kinds of products - http://earth911.com/.
