UK businesses and public bodies could save huge amounts - some
£500m and 2m tonnes of CO2 emissions per year - by
engaging employees in cutting energy use, paper waste and
travel.
To help your business harness these huge energy savings our
innovative online office tool, Carbon Trust
Empower™, is designed to increase employee engagement by
putting your workforce in the driving seat.
Engaging staff in energy efficiency schemes is nothing new but
it is rarely done to maximum effect. The central challenge is
making actions tangible, fun and sustained over time. That's why
Empower has been configured entirely around the employee, to help
them see that through simple behavioral changes, their individual
efforts add up to make a bigger difference.
