What kind of printing culprits are in your office?
June 9, 2010
A great article I spotted on the Envirowise website today taking a humorous look at the characters you might have in your office when it comes to printing documents.
I could certainly identify at least one of every type from my last job which was based in a busy office.
Underlying the humour though there is a very important message. The cost of waste in UK companies is typically 4-5% of turnover and can be as high as 10%. With disposal costs rising and a greater focus on ‘green’ issues it has never been more important to continually review ways to reduce waste. This can ultimately lead to greater efficiency and increased profitability.
Of course my home office is currently staffed with personnel of one so I couldn’t possibly reveal what sort of printing culprit works here!
