Give your employees the opportunity to contribute ideas and suggestions to improve sustainability in the company. Encourage them to actively participate in environmental protection projects and look for solutions together.

Integrate sustainable practices into the daily work routine, e.g. by using recycled materials, reducing paper consumption, promoting public transportation or introducing energy saving measures.
