Waste Reduction/Recycling

Waste Reduction and Recycling Practices

Reducing the environmental impact of our operations

Reducing the amount of waste we generate and increasing recycling are key focus areas for FY2013. To identify opportunities to achieve both these goals, we will conduct waste audits at a representative sample of offices across the country. Because of the nature of our business, paper consumption has been targeted as a priority and we have already started to roll out a national initiative with respect to shredding that will capture all of the paper from the waste stream and divert it from landfills through recycling.

In FY2012, our paper consumption remained stable at 58,350,000 sheets in comparison to 58,915,000 in FY2011.
