Environmental Awareness

BELS Environmental Policy sets out the organisation's commitment to the environment - BELS Environmental Policy 2008

BELS has implemented several initiatives to improve its environmental performance.

There are a lot of simple ways in which our office has been made more cost effective, environmentally aware and energy efficient.

Here are some of the practical things we are doing:

Energy Use:

# All office equipment including PCs & Monitors, copiers and printers are switched off every night or if not needed for some time;

# Lights are turned off whenever a room is empty;

# Equipment is only turned on when needed;

# Only enough water is boiled as needed.

Waste Minimisation / Management:

# Something is only printed out if a hard copy is really needed;

# All photocopying and publications are produced in double-sided format;

# Junk Mail and unwanted publications are cancelled to reduce the amount of waste that has to be thrown away;

# Electronic communication is used where possible to reduce printing and faxing e.g. meeting Agenda are displayed at meetings on a projector screen;

# Stationary, envelopes and paper are re-used wherever possible e.g. files, folders etc;

# A regular stationary amnesty is held where staff are asked to hand in their unused stationary for re-use;

# Items that cannot be reused are recycled wherever possible. The local council recycle some items for a nominal fee;

# Recycled paper is used;

# Disposable catering products such as plastic cups have been replaced with reusable glass items.
