“SoftTeco Green Office” Mission
Our mission is to minimize the negative impact of business activities on the environment and human health by conserving resources and reducing waste. It covers many aspects, from a well-organized workplace to the transport used by workers. Participation in “SoftTeco Green Office” activities is voluntary, assuring an environmentally friendly approach.
The 3R Concept
Refuse
Refuse to use non-ecological technologies and goods, such as disposable plastic utensils
Reduce
Reduce and decrease the resources used, such as electricity
Reuse
Reuse of certain resources, e.g. using reusable utensils
In our daily workflows, we follow our own “SoftTeco Green Office” principles:
Save electricity and heat
Save water
Separate waste collection
Sale old furniture and equipment
Eco friendly transport
Eco friendly cleaning & personal care products
Buy locally produced food and beverages
We take part in the volunteer project “Give books a second life.” For this purpose, we collect paper waste for recycling at a special place and hand books to social institutions. SoftTeco employees organized BookCrossing under the motto “Read an interesting book and share it with a friend.”
Also, we regularly sell office furniture and equipment. By reusing these items, we do not turn them into garbage but instead provide them with a second life, thereby saving resources.
