Earth Operations Practice

Our business is committed to appreciating our Earth resources by following these practices:

Regular Telecommuting for Staff
Laptops with remote access to emails and booking systems
On Call service for our clients outside office hours
Remote on line access for our Operating System, Aquarius.

DON’T PRINT
Use scrap paper for notes
Email dont post
Email dont fax
When printing from your computer, if you absolutely have to (are you sure you need to?)
print two pages per A4 page, if you have duplex printing, print on both sides of the page;
Only print when absolutely necessary; always offer to email instead

COMMUNICATIONSAll clients must have an email account.
We encourage written communication as much as possible to maintain a reliable audit trail.

SIGNING DOCUMENTSWe no longer print documents only to sign and fax then store. That costs time, paper and space. As we value all of those resources and dont consider them to be unlimited we do the following:
Our secure signatures are digitally attached to each document and returned via email or Internet download then digitally backed up.

PAYING BY CHEQUE
We don't pay be cheqye.
All payments are deposited directly into client bank accounts.
All remittances are emailed directly.
Ask clients to pay Directly Deposit into our Bank Account.
Ask them to email Remittance directly to Accounts.

PUBLICITY AND MARKETINGWe will not accept printed publicity or marketing material or submissions.
We no longer file archive or store paper promo.
We accept and will store CDs.
They will be given away after 6 months
We will only keep EPKs for 12 months and then destroyed

By appreciating our resources, we use less space, less time, spend less money on stationary and can easily access files and information by building an infrstructure of Data Management Systems.
