Green office task force
Our “green office” task force of volunteers meets regularly to discuss ideas on how to incorporate environmental consciousness into our day-to-day operations and off-work activities. We are reaching out to as many colleagues as possible from different units within our firm, so we can consider different issues and needs when developing our projects.
We organise a step counting competition every year: this has a beneficial effect on team spirit, which helps us to work better together. In the spirit of waste reduction, employees can drop items that they no longer need but are in good condition in the Charity Box in our office. We also participate in the Jane Goodall Institute’s “Pass It Back, Bro” campaign, in which we collect used cell phones.
In addition to regular collection drives, we also organise seasonal charity events where we distribute donations to different organisations. For example, we organised our Christmas shoebox campaign in December 2022 and the #nemluxustaska donation drive last spring.
Occasionally, some of us go on a hike to repaint faded hiking trail markers, which gives us a great opportunity to get out and do something for our community. During our annual Volunteer Day in the autumn of 2022, our colleagues carried out several important environmental activities outdoors, including picking up litter and maintaining nature trails in the Pilis Park Forest, and restoring tourist shelters and information boards on the Lombkorona Trail around Pannonhalma Abbey.
