Sustainability Report
Since implementation of risk controls have been implemented for more effective resource
control, the following sustainability initiatives have been implemented:
 Energy audit and all recommendations implemented including signage about energy
use (e.g. switch off lights at night, turn down brightness, turn off taps)
 Recycling policy introduced, and three more recycling bins introduced.
 Green purchasing policy developed (on staff intranet, email sent to staff to advise).
 Green transport policy developed and implemented (on staff intranet, email sent to
staff to advise).
Prior to the implementation of the above, the following targets were set:
 Reduce electricity consumption by 20% within three months.
 Promote awareness of sustainability initiatives amongst all staff members
The results of the energy audit are as follows:
Prior to energy audit:
 Annual energy bill: $2,415 a year
 Annual greenhouse emissions: 18 tonnes a year
Three months later:
 Annual energy bill: $1,800 a year
 Annual greenhouse emissions: 10.2 tonnes a year
Six months later:
 Annual energy bill: $2,215 a year
 Annual greenhouse emissions: 14 tonnes a year
Note: Four new staff members employed may account for increase. Energy targets were not
adjusted to account for the new staff.
