Going Green
When businesses such as court reporting or transcription firms hear about going green the first thing they think of is cutting down on the use of paper. And although using less paper in the office does help our environment and save on office expenses there are many other ways to help your workplace GO GREEN.
Here's a few to get your office starting on the right foot...
One way to save is by making the change from incandescent lights to LED's. Not only do LED lights use less power than the incandescent lights but the CO2 emissions are much less, leading to a healthier work environment.
Another energy saving tip, one which a lot of employees forget to do is turn off your computers and monitor screens. Rebooting your system every morning can save your company thousands of dollars depending on how many computers are left on 24/7. Just think, do you leave your television on all day and night, or do you turn it off when you leave the house and go to sleep to save on energy costs? Same concept here.
Set up teleconferences and webcam meetings instead of driving to an offsite location. A lot of lawyers have found the benefits of taking depositions via a video conference , which saves a firm money as well as saving our environment from the pollution's of gasoline fumes and the wastefulness of exhausting a resource.
Those are just a few of many minimal changes that can help you transition to a greener work life.
