• A Greener Workplace
  At EPiQVision, we recognize that every action taken in the workplace can have an environmental impact. We will strive to create an eco-friendly workplace that will benefit our employees and the world around us. By implementing the following measures, we can increase our efficiency, save electricity, reduce waste and greenhouse gases, and fulfill our responsibilities to the environment.

EPiQVision in their commitment to the environment and the community as a whole will enforce eco-friendly procedures in their workplace which will require employees’ complete support. 

• Whenever possible, all documents shall be printed on both sides, using recycled paper. This will reduce our paper usage, conserve energy, and save waste.

• Hold paperless meetings by utilizing technologies such as ‘go to meeting’ and material display and review via projector or screen-sharing to monitors instead of handouts.
• Partner with suppliers and companies that are environmentally friendly.
• Use an automated time reporting and paperless payroll system.
• Refill our printer cartridges, rather than purchase new ones.
• Diligently recycle all paper, cardboard, glass, tins, PCs, and recyclable plastics.
• Ensure that computers are turned off at the end of the day, and if not possible, turn off monitors as they consume the most energy.
• Turn off servers at the end of the work day and set them up for automatic turn on and off for necessary updates in the evening.
• Purchase energy efficient equipment.
• Reduce the use of gaff tape and other non-reusable supplies
• Turn off all lights when not in use.
• Use ceramic mugs, dishes, glasses, and metal flatware instead of their disposable counterparts.

• Walk, use public transportation, or carpool for the daily commute to the office.
