Fighting climate changeFighting climate change
HIC influences staff and suppliers to fight climate change through the reduction of consumption and waste using a multifaceted approach:
Education and Training: HIC conducts workshops focused on climate change awareness, emphasizing the environmental impact of IT operations, consumption habits, and waste management. These sessions involving staff, suppliers and on occasion clients, are tailored to the specific context of healthcare IT, highlighting the importance of sustainability in delivering technology-oriented services. They are habitually conducted as retreats to environments commensurate to the workshop theme.
Policy Integration: HIC works with the client to integrate sustainable practices into their organisational policies and procedures. This may include suggesting energy efficiency approaches and the implementation of procurement guidelines for eco-friendly products, and / or proffering ideas to help reduce waste.
Technology Optimisation: HIC repeatedly assesses IT infrastructure and systems to identify opportunities for optimisation and energy efficiency improvements. This can involve consolidating servers, implementing virtualisation techniques, and promoting the use of energy-saving devices, sensors and device controllers. HIC encourages regular re-assessment of energy delivery supplies, promoting eco-focused evaluation and selection along with the early adoption of eco-friendly self-generation and power storage facilities.
Incentive Programs: HIC develops incentive programs to reward staff for their contributions to climate change mitigation efforts. This includes recognition schemes for innovative ideas, bonuses tied to meeting sustainability targets, and team-based challenges to reduce consumption and waste.
Monitoring and Reporting: HIC monitors the progress of its sustainability initiatives, regularly tracking key performance indicators relating to energy consumption, waste generation, and carbon emissions.
