Pollen Consulting Group 1% Success Story

Conducting business in a socially responsible way is engrained in our DNA. We believe this a driver for business success and we will continue to strive to make the planet, our environment and our communities a better place than when we began.

RECYCLING & THE ENVIRONMENT

Pollen is proud to have achieved a carbon negative footprint:

• Planting 1700 trees across Australia


• Selecting renewable energy sources for electricity


• Active recycling in our office – every employee has their own Pollen “Keep-Cup” which is not only used in the office but also whilst travelling at client sites. We calculated that we save over 10,000 plastic cups a year!! 


• Being a paperless office – there are no printers at Pollen limiting the use of paper


• Limiting e-waste by limiting the number of computer screens/monitors in our office.

WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY

Pollen values giving back to the community. We have achieved this through:

• Sponsoring Australia’s leading food rescue charity “Oz Harvest”. They collect quality surplus food, distribute it to people in need and divert food waste from landfill. https://www.ozharvest.org/


• Supporting Drought Angels – a worthwhile charity that supports Aussie farmers: https://www.droughtangels.org.au/


• The planting of 1700 new trees via the “Fifteen Trees” organisation that plants trees in various areas to promote land re-generation, sustainable native forests, bushlands and grasslands, as well as productive land for crops and stock.


• Collaborating on a pro-bono basis with the Bread & Butter company. They specialize in educating refugees from across the world in the crafts of becoming skilled bakers: https://thebreadandbutterproject.com/


• Pollen employees are are frequently volunteering with community-based initiatives such as The Rural Fire Service and Surf Lifesaving Australia
