THE brightly lit lobby that hosts a few tables, chairs, LED screens and a casual café is roughly just 1,500 square meters in size, but it is actually more powerful than it looks. This recently launched Sustainability Hub of Accenture Philippines acts as the one-stop shop for the company's environmental, social and governance actions. This is where partners are usually given an update on their green initiatives.
During the launch, Accenture Philippines' statement acknowledged that 'sustainability is an important force of change.' Embedding it 'in everything it does and everyone it works with' leads to the creation of 'both business value and sustainable impact, enabled by technology and human ingenuity.
A free module called Sustainability Quotient teaches employees the meaning of sustainability, ESG components and doable, practical, but significant micro-actions that they can employ.An example is the Laptops for You program, which lets employees take care of their laptops and then keep them at the end of the device's natural life for a 'very, very minimal fee.' In contrast, most companies dispose of laptops as soon as they depreciate.
Accenture gives its Eco-Champions an option to continue these sustainability initiatives even outside the office's walls. The app Eco Digit enables employees to declare their environmentally friendly activities at home and at work.Regarding institutional partners, Accenture Philippines collaborated with a client to create the carbon footprint risk calculator using generative artificial intelligence leveraging ChatGPT.
