We’re proud to be a paperless organisation!
At the beginning of 2017, we decided to ‘Go Green,’ and embrace a paperless new year. We’re pleased to report that we managed to keep our new year’s resolutions, and have since become a ‘Paperless office!’
“Going Paperless” is the ethos of digitising anything that is unnecessarily applied to paper, such as invoices, documents, letters and cheques. We made our training packs available online, via our website, for delegates to download following a training session. We hoped this initiative would save on waste, and promote environmental care – and it has.
According to PaperlessLogo.com, pretty much any business can go paperless. If any THREE of the following criteria apply in your workplace, then it should be noted that you are actively contributing toward a paperless environment. You have the right to call yourself a ‘Paperless Business’ and use The Paperless Logo.
