Corporate Social Responsibility
Statement of Commitment
e.law has made an ongoing commitment to behave ethically and to contribute to economic development, while improving the quality of life of the workforce and their families, as well as the local community and society at large. By balancing the social, environmental and economic obligations of the company, our CSR Policy aims to ensure that business operations and development are ‘sustainable.’ This means that the company meets the needs of the present generation, without interfering with the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
Community
At e.law, all staff are encouraged to participate in various community activities, through either participation in fund raising events, or by donating to charitable organisations. This year our people are involved in:
- The Nissan/BRW Corporate Triathlon - raising money for Best Buddies Australia
- The 2010 MS Australia Walk & Fun Run
- The Vinnies CEO Sleepout - raising awareness and funds to help combat homelessness
We are also running workplace awareness campaigns for The Australian Red Cross Blood Service and Beyond Blue, The National Depression Initiative.
Environment
We are committed to a sustainable future through the adoption of environmentally responsible policies and practices. As part of this commitment, we acknowledge our responsibility to reduce the impact that our business operations will have on the environment. We do this through the following initiatives:
- Use of recycled or ‘green’ products where possible
- Recycling of toner cartridges, batteries, IT equipment
- A land reforestation project in Queensland
