Sustainability at Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS)

I'm not aware of any sustainability efforts, however as a public agency, it's up to the government of the day to implement this sort of stuff.

It seems like everyone cares.

There has been a new push towards increasing this, but the focus was sent out by management for the staff to action. For such a large organisation, they could consider employment of an environmental officer. To date there has not been a follow up on what's happening in each office. We do have recycling and a green waste bin. In my office there is encourage for reusable coffee cups

Unneccesary travel (by air)

Most things are via email now. I have seen cleaners disposing of recycling and general rubbish in the same bags, but since they're managed by the building there's little we can do. There are various green teams as well.

Not as visible as their commitment to Diversity.

Company has a sustainability team for each office which contribute greatly

Green bins in the offices are good. wish we did more

The green teams were MIA during COVID however have started back up in some states. Our offices make an effort to ensure correct disposal of rubbish, and have a soft plastic area, alongside a reusable bag box. The Melbourne office has recently started also collecting cans to be taken to the can recycling depot.

Not very familiar with any sustainability efforts.

We have Green Group that manages recycling in the office.

They have rubbish reports, but don't do much else that I am aware of.

Don't know much about this.

Unsure.

not aware

Unsure

Energy saving lights that turn off when not in use, recycling etc

don't usually print things out I suppose

Reduce environmental footprint is written down in our email signature.

Haven't observed many active initiatives in this area. It seems to generally be considered important, though.
