How business telecommunications can help you go green

Government legislation, coupled with various incentives, is prompting companies to change their attitude to the way in which they operate environmentally, but how far has the green agenda come and how can innovative business telecommunications help to ensure that sustainability does not become derailed by the recession?

Gone are the days when companies could afford to ignore the ‘green agenda’. A rising tide of environmental legislation is forcing corporate UK to wake up to the realities of energy efficiency and pollution and encouraging a greener and more cost effective approach to the way in which we work.

On average, small businesses in the UK spend up to £5,000 a year on electricity and a number of schemes have been developed to help advise businesses on how to reduce that figure. One of these is called the Carbon Reduction Commitment. This scheme is designed to act as an incentive to improve energy efficiency.  It is based on the premise of providing funding and incentives to help businesses reduce their energy consumption.

One of the scheme’s objectives is to help more employees work from home. Working from home is facilitated by the next generation of business telecommunications and from better business mobiles and high speed business broadband to better telecoms support and unified business telecommunication solutions.

So, ‘going into the office’ may well be an outdated concept within the next decade.  Watch this space…
