LC Agency
Environmental Policy
Interpreting and Translation Linguists Collective (LC) Agency is deeply committed to preserving our environment for the well-being of future generations. As a provider of language services, we acknowledge the responsibility to ensure that our operations are environmentally responsible. Our Environmental Policy embodies our dedication to reducing our ecological footprint and promoting resource efficiency.
Our Commitment to Energy Efficiency:
LC is steadfast in its pursuit of energy conservation. We diligently monitor and manage our energy consumption, with a strong focus on reducing our contribution to greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants linked to climate change. This commitment extends to the deliberate choice of energy-efficient equipment and vehicles. We emphasize exclusive use of environmentally conscious equipment and vehicles that align with stringent environmental standards. Furthermore, we aspire to foster a culture of waste reduction, extending eco-responsible practices not only at our UK operations but also in our activities worldwide.
Efficient Water Management:
LC is equally dedicated to reducing water consumption and minimising water discharges within our premises (if any).
Strategies for Waste Reduction:
We actively work towards minimising waste generation in our daily operations, construction projects, and other activities. Our approach encompasses three pillars: reduction, reuse, and recycling, which we conscientiously apply to all materials used.
Responsible Procurement:
LC follows sustainable procurement practices, compliant with EC regulatory requirements and UK Government policies. We procure goods and services with a minimal ecological footprint, and our preference is to engage local suppliers whenever possible. We further encourage our suppliers to elevate their environmental performance.
Staff Engagement:
We understand the vital role our staff plays in environmental management. LC seeks to channel the enthusiasm and interest displayed by our team. We equip our employees with information and support, empowering them to carry out their environmental responsibilities effectively.
Visitor Awareness:
While we don’t have visitors at our office, our commitment to the environment remains resolute. LC aims to raise awareness among our stakeholders about the impact of our activities on the environment and suggests practical actions to mitigate these effects. This extends beyond our office space to our broader interactions and operations.
Partnering for a Greener Future:
We actively promote environmental best practices among our business partners, fostering shared responsibility for safeguarding the environment. This commitment is integrated into our daily operations, encompassing procedural standards, annual targets, and detailed action plans.
Our Environmental Policy is a living document that undergoes quarterly reviews and receives an annual report, ensuring that LC remains dedicated to our mission of environmental stewardship and sustainability.
