Employee Participation
Description Continue to promote environmental initiatives with active employee participation - add two new initiatives to increase recycling options for Eco Advocates. Eco Advocate volunteers supported our first ever waste stream audit and employee Junk Swap events. More than 300 employees donated materials for employee Junk Swap, which diverted more than 5,000 square feet of exchanged materials from local landfills. More than 150 employees took a test drive in a plug-in electric vehicle at an event designed to raise awareness about plug-in technologies. Eco Advocates also monitored recycling containers to reduce contamination and supported an electric vehicle test drive and education fair. Conduct waste stream audit for another building at headquarters. Organize 2nd annual employee Junk Swap. Incorporate responsible recycling instructions into SAS customer software deliveries. Expand Green2Go program, reusable alternative to food to-go plastic containers, to another cafeteria at SAS headquarters.
