Atlas Copco Initiates New Employee Sustainability Program
COMMERCE CITY, Colo. — Atlas Copco has launched an employee-led sustainability program called Blue is the New Green to reduce its resource consumption on a global scale. The new program encourages employees to minimize their environmental impact by making small changes to consume fewer resources, including electricity, materials and water.
Atlas Copco created the new program after completing a company-wide survey in 2013. More than 3,000 employees in 65 countries completed the survey, and more than 65 percent of employees reported that a focused effort in reducing resource consumption would create value for themselves and the company.
