Environment
Our business has an impact on the environment through the
energy and natural resources we use and the waste we
generate.
At Cable & Wireless we know how important the environment is.
We always try to make sure everything we do has as little impact on
the environment as possible, from making sure we comply with all
the laws and regulations and beyond.
Here are just a few of the things we do to help the
environment:
- Looking at our work practices and prioritizing those that may
have a significant environmental impact.
- Ensuring that resources are not wasted.
- Encouraging suppliers, contractors and business partners to
operate in an equally responsible way.
- Minimizing the amount of waste to landfill we produce by
recycling as much as we can and disposing of remaining waste in a
responsible manner.
- Encouraging the involvement of employees
- Introducing online paperless billing
So what does this mean?
We provide our customers with services in the most effective and
efficient manner possible. For example recent technologies have
allowed us to provide more services using existing cables. We do
our best to reduce the amount of energy we use and make sure that
we use suppliers and manufacturers that also operate in the same
way. We have reduced our off island business travel dramatically by
the use of video conferencing systems and e-mail has reduced the
amount of paper used in written communications. Employees are
encouraged to minimise energy use and recycle waste wherever
possible. We run a variety of waste recovery, reuse and recycling
systems that include:
- Batteries
- Cardboard
- Cable
- Mobile phones
- Plastics&
- Printer and toner cartridges
- Technical and electronic equipment
