Environmental Sustainability

Going green for our planet

Drake New Zealand has a company- wide environmental mandate. As a professional services company, there are a number of ways that we can help to reduce our carbon emissions, and those in our supply chain.

Our ‘go green’ focus is implemented through the following initiatives:

• Donating a tree for every permanent placement made through Trees that Count.

• Reducing our paper-based processes, developing digital processes for any paper-based forms and documents.

• Supporting local and sourcing carbon neutral office supplies and merchandise.

• When we must print, doing so on recycled and ethically-sourced paper where possible.

• Encouraging the use of and gifting sustainable coffee mugs and water bottles, reducing the personal waste of our staff and supply chain

• Ensuring all lighting and electrical equipment is turned off when not in use.

• Recycling in our offices and responsible litter management.

• Some offices have automatic switches installed to conserve energy. All electrical items are tested to ensure all items are in good condition and working order.

• Ensuring all taps and other water delivery devices are turned off when not in use.
