Lockton Environment Report 2023

Additional Environmental Programmes Two prime programmes have continued over the past twelve months as these make up a fair amount of the business waste as we invest in the business and adapt our technology and furniture to meet the neds of supporting agile working and increased headcounts. Recycle IT equipment We have continued to work with a number of specialist companies for surplus IT equipment disposal and WEEE waste disposal. We ensure accredited data wiping has taken place and allowed reuse (upcycling) by others of redundant equipment. The remainder has been broken down into spares for reuse by others. Furniture Our prime furniture supplier is Senator and we have continued to work with them to ensure replaced surplus furniture is taken by them, where we have worked with them to upcycle where possible to schools and other organisations, with the remainder going through to their UK based dismantling facility. Over the course of the year we have also been re-working our City of London office space to support agile working and have recycled as scrap metal our surplus desk pedestals and filing cabinets. Package Movement. Our supplier partner for package movement is DHL, in conjunction with their Go Green Climate Neutral service we seek to minimise the impact of our movement of packages and equipment between offices and with clients, whether within the UK or internationally. We are therefore part of their go green programme and pay an additional amount to them for package movement to offset the carbon cost of that movement. It is also appropriate to note that DHL have their own carbon reduction programme. Pollution and Plastics. Key Targets 2023 We continue to look to remove plastics, particularly all single use plastic from the business and identify and remove all unnecessary plastic use from the business. Our catering and cleaning contractors in London are supporting this removal of single use plastics. With other suppliers where our relationship with them is transactional rather than through a framework as we don’t have sufficient volumes, it is proving more difficult to get them to use plastic free protection around delivered items. With our furniture supplier they have removed plastics from their delivery as part of their own strategic move, a welcome bous of working with an appropriate organisation. Fit Out Projects 98.5% of all out waste from our recent fit out project in London was recycled or reused, the waste being split into streams by the contractor before removal from site (Data insert here awaited)
