Deutsche Telekom IT Solutions is the largest nearshore location of T-Systems International. A headcount of 5 100 makes it the largest ICT employer in Hungary. While conducting operations at four sites, we create value but also cause unavoidable waste. We are committed to reducing our environmental footprint to the smallest possible size as well as to creating an environmentally-conscious corporate culture. Our principal initiatives are as follows:
Mill Park – Green Park In summer 2018, the Budapest offices of Deutsche Telekom IT Solutions moved to a new location, the seven-story Mill Park office complex (Budapest, 9th district) with floorspace of 35 000 sqm. The building has been awarded the Gold Standard of the LEED Green Building Certification System. It uses 25 percent less energy than traditional office space thanks to the fact that most of the offices receive sufficient natural illumination during the day through optimum use of sunlight. The building also uses passive solar energy as a result of its orientation – in addition to district heating. The insulation capacity of facade elements complies with net-zero building regulations, while photovoltaic (solar) panels are installed on the roof. Rainwater also has an important role to play since landscape irrigation and WCs make use of this water resource, representing a water saving of approximately 75 percent in comparison with traditional office buildings.
Selective waste collection Deutsche Telekom IT Solutions is committed to achieving selective waste collection and preventing waste production. Selective waste collection in the company’s offices is available throughout the entire complex. This enables recyclable, superfluous materials to be forwarded to a disposal company for processing. Special bins have been installed in dining areas for collection of plastic, paper, and communal waste. We selectively collect plastic, ink and toner cartridges, batteries, and electronic waste within the company. Delivery and further handling of waste products are carried out in compliance with selective waste-management guidelines and criteria.
Think before you print We all know that the paperless office is correct as an objective, but we acknowledge that it has yet to be achieved. Although we still use paper, we are reducing the quantity of paper and printed materials to a minimum. Bins suitable for collecting paper waste are located in the dining areas, enabling employees to selectively collect paper for recycling. We have positioned user notices above printers to highlight environmentally-aware photocopying and printing techniques. Our printers are configured for black-and-white printing on both sides as the default. This saves paper and ink. Print-based posters have been banished from our Budapest offices. All our billboard-type communication is presented on LCD displays situated in the lobby and installed in lifts.
