Sustainability at GHD Australia

Learning sessions on how to decrease our environmental footprint. A diverse range of bins are located through the office for Plastics, Green Waste, General Waste and Ink Cartridges

We talk a lot about it, but we do not so as much as we could

We have green bins, recycle soft plastics and often discuss how we can be more 'green'

One of our priorities on jobs is environmental assessment. I think we give our all to preserve and/or improve the environment.

The company urges employees to go paperless. Unsure of any further environmental/sustainability initiatives.

We are as paperless as is practical, and have electronic waste recycling programs in place, among other initiatives.

During staff events plastic parts of name tags will sometimes be saved for re-use although in the field large quantities of plastic tubing and bottles are used to maintain the integrity of scientific samples.

Paperless company, no use of paper, all done on the computer. Low-use power monitors.

Little importance as far as I'm aware

Token initiatives

Composting, clothing swaps, energy efficiencies

There are separate bins for organic waste. Focus on viewing files on screen.

Company could be better at considering environmental impacts as part of project HSE process. Often considered last after economic and social impacts. However, this often reflects client priorities and politics. Attitude of some engineers needs to improve. Some green office initiatives running.

Care is taken to limit the embodied carbon and usage state energy of the structures we design.

It tries to reduce its operational environmental footprint on one hand, while accepting oil and gas jobs with the other.
