To support this, we operate a hybrid working policy ensuring any miles travelled are absolutely necessary and make extensive use of public transport methods where possible to reduce vehicles on the road. We also encourage all employees and sub-contractors to make use of modern electric vehicles to further reduce our impact on the environment.
