ZHERO GREEN POLICY 

 

At Zhero Limited, we understand our obligation to the environment extends beyond mere compliance with laws and regulations. We are dedicated to minimizing our environmental footprint and consistently enhancing our environmental practices as fundamental components of our business strategy and operational methodologies, with regular checkpoints for evaluation. Furthermore, we actively encourage our customers, suppliers and other stakeholders to join us in these efforts.  

Zhero Limited is acutely aware of our environmental impact, particularly concerning electrical waste management, which can pose significant challenges for recycling. However, recognizing the rapid growth of the electronic waste management industry, we diligently review our Green Policy to incorporate updated recycling protocols for electronic waste periodically.  

Here is what we have implemented about minimising our green footprint as much as we can and as much as possible in our profession. 

 

MOVING TOWARDS A PAPERLESS OFFICE 

We currently run an almost paperless office; nothing that can be conveyed electronically is printed unless absolutely necessary. Scrap paper is shredded and recycled wherever appropriate. 

We pledge to:  

  • Further minimise the use of paper in the office. 
  • Make use of non-wasteful packaging. 
  • Buy recycled and recyclable paper products. 
  • Reuse and recycle all paper where possible. 

 

BECOMING MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT 

IT equipment generates heat and requires cooling to ensure optimum performance. We only use approved cooling systems and ensure that they are as energy-efficient as possible. 

 We pledge to: 

  •  Further reduce the amount of energy used as much as possible. 
  • Switch off lights and electrical equipment when not in use. 
  • Use heating judiciously with energy efficiency in mind. 
  • Consider energy consumption and efficiency when purchasing new products. 
 
SAVING TRAVEL MILES 

Our support services are primarily remote and offsite. Wherever it is necessary for us to travel to a customer site our engineers try and go there by public transport whenever possible. 

  • We pledge to: 
  • Promote the use of travel alternatives such as e-mail or video/ phone conferencing. 
  • Promote the use of public transport and bicycles. 

 

DISPOSING WASTE RESPONSIBLY 

We currently recycle the usual waste materials that an office produces and make use of a local sorting centre where waste is divided into various groups and disposed of per municipal guidelines. 

We pledge to continue to:  

  • Ship our e-waste to a licensed and accredited institution for proper disposal. 
  • Donate serviceable components in good repair to charities or schools. 
  • Use licensed and appropriate organisations to dispose of waste. 

 

PROMOTING A GREEN CORPORATE CULTURE 

We have tried to involve all staff in the implementation of this policy and will continue to do so. We are committed to providing staff with the relevant environmental training. We will also endeavour to work with suppliers, contractors and sub-contractors to improve their environmental performance. 

 

 MOVING FORWARD  
  • We will comply with and exceed all relevant regulatory requirements. 
  • We will continually improve and monitor our environmental performance. 
  • We will continually improve and reduce our environmental impact. 
  • We will incorporate environmental factors into business decisions. 
  • We will increase employee awareness through training. 
  • We will review this policy and any related business issues at our monthly management meetings.
