We get time off to plant trees! Pretty cool.

Net zero by 2025 is an amazing goal that I really hope my company achieves

Paid volunteering hours, sustainability must be built into every single project from the proposal stage.

There are numerous ethics and compliance training that are mandatory to complete. They teach employees the basics of expected work place conduct and safety.

They encourage employees to participate in volunteering and give you 7.5 hours paid to allocate to volunteering.

My employer provides a day of paid volunteering every year. There has also been plenty of fundraisers.

7.5h to volunteer a year, I volunteered at FareShare to prep food for the less privileged.

Countless programs and volunteering they want us to do on company time as that's how important it is to them

There are many sustainability groups that discuss how technology can be implemented to create a greener future.

Sustainability initiatives and volunteering opportunities.

I believe Accenture has very strong values in social responsibility. There are lots of initiatives going on from collecting coffee cups in the office to limiting the air flights trips of employees due to pollution. I have been collecting plastic lids to support the recycling campaign running in Canberra in favor of sick children.

We have participated and have available to us to participate in many local and international volunteering activities. For example, Hour of Code, Eat up and Every Name Matters programs and projects.

Employees have paid volunteering hours and there are lots of volunteering opportunities, both online and in person (at the office or a outside location). I was involved in environmental volunteering projects and charity fundraising projects.

I am currently working on an Energy and Utilities Cloud Demo which is a short video demoing the Cloud features to clients.

Volunteering to prepare food for less privileged school kids

They have many volunteer opportunities such as working the Salvos, encouraging initiatives like September and opportunities where employees can volunteer to teach school kids IT skills. They offer volunteer leave where you can still be paid your normal work hours

There is a big focus on volunteering and opportunities to contribute are sent out regularly in email communications and there is a platform to look for more opportunities as well. Contributions are recognised in performance reviews and a day worth of paid volunteering leave is available to all employees.
