How to Start a BYORB Project for Your Office – And Why You Should
Office managers
are often torn between the portion of the workforce that values convenience and
the people who are green-minded. As most people know, offices create a lot of
waste in the form of everything from packaging and containers to coffee
stirrers, paper, and garbage.
Changing employees’ perspective on waste reduction needs to
start small. Implementing a Bring Your Own Reusable Bottle initiative is a
great place to start if you want to combine modern office design ideas with
actionable waste reduction strategies. Here is how to go about it:
Create a Sustainability Task Force
This is especially helpful in a large workforce where
everybody doesn’t know each other’s name. Before you launch the Bring Your Own
Reusable Bottle project, create a sustainability task force who is willing to
start by bringing their own reusable bottles to work. Your waste reduction
strategy is much more likely to stick if you have a group of people who are
excited about the initiative.
Make the Transition Gradual
Sometimes, change can lead to anxiety. If you predict that
it might be challenging to get everyone to switch to reusable bottles, leave a
pack of plastic cups near the water cooler in plain sight for everyone to see.
The chances are good that when the plastic cups are finished, people won’t know
where to find more and it will simply seem like less effort to bring their own
reusable bottles to work.
Get Your Own Made
If you have a budget for your Bring Your Own Reusable Bottle
initiative, then this is a no-brainer. What better way to encourage employees
to reduce waste than by giving them a personalized water bottle or a water
bottle with the company logo on it?
