save paper save trees
The 21st century mantra 'Reduce, Re-use, Recycle' is especially applicable to your daily office work with paper. We ar Webigg Technology belive in following these steps, and combine with our company purchasing contributing in recycled paper and supporting the recycling of office paper. This results in your office cutting its paper use by more than half.
Webigg Technology belives that small actions from each of us can help protect our fragile global environment. The first thing to initiate this is to GET DIGITAL and use LESS PAPER. We have encouraged and promoted, sharing and distributing all kinds of document used in our office via electronic means instead of printing them.
How Webigg Technology Contributes to Save Paper! Save Trees! initiative?
Reducing the amount we print and going DIGITAL
The most effective way to save paper is to use less. We work electronically and manage our printing to use the least amount possible. Here are some work practices that we follow and use less paper while also improving our productivity.
We Recommend corporates to work on following steps and support the initiative.
- Work on, save, publish & distribute documents in electronic format
Define clear (and tight) criteria for when you print. By limiting the times you can print you will have to develop your electronic work habits (editing on screen, online collaboration, taking meeting notes on laptop, etc).
- Check it before you print it
Train yourself to sanity-check the document. Use the Spell Check and Print Preview functions of your word processing software before you print.
- Edit and make comments on the soft copy
Revise draft documents using the Edit and Comment features of your word-processing software rather than a hard copy (which you then need to re-enter into the soft copy).
- Ensure all prints are double sided
This reduces paper use by 50% per cent in one press of a button.
- Distribute a single hard copy
Establish a routing procedure whereby the single copy is passed to several people for review.
Re-use paper
Inevitably, paper will be used and will not be required any longer.
- Re-use scrap paper
Collect all scrap paper that is printed on only one side. Place in a reusable paper tray near printers for reuse. (Be aware not to reuse confidential documents! These should be shredded.).
- Re-use paper to print non-presentation documents
Many print jobs can be done on the blank side of a used piece of A4.
- Re-use paper for notepads
All those pieces of paper printed on one side that you no longer need make great notepads.
