Many are already committed to putting climate action at the heart of their operations and a growing number are expected to follow suit. Not only will this <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">attract young, talented, and climate-conscious Gen Zers and Millennials<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to the organization, but it will also make the organization stand out to climate-conscious consumers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One easy way to go green is to offer sustainable employee benefits. From public transport incentives to locally-sourced food programs and beyond, green incentives for employees will help your organization lower its carbon footprint in no time. If you don\u2019t know how to create a sustainable employee benefits plan, you\u2019re in luck as this <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pacific Prime<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> article will give you plenty of ideas to keep you going.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class='code-block code-block-4' style='margin: 8px 0; clear: both;'>\n<p><button class=\"mo-modal-open\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-4629\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/SEO-Baner-Corporate.jpg\" alt=\"Corporate insurance banner\" width=\"1138\" height=\"493\" \/><\/button><\/p><\/div>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Encourage your employees to commute into work more sustainably\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your employees may drive long distances to get to work, which contributes to traffic, congestion, and pollution. So why not encourage them to ditch their cars and opt for sustainable modes of travel? You can offer <\/span><strong>discounted public transport passes<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and\/or have <\/span><strong>salary sacrifice programs for bicycle purchases<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, whereby employees can gradually pay for the bicycle through a monetary dedication from their salary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To make biking (or walking) more attractive, you can <\/span><strong>install showers and lockers in the office<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This kills two birds with one stone: lowering your organization\u2019s carbon footprint and ensuring your employees stay active. As exercise does wonders for one\u2019s physical and mental health, employees will be in a better mood, more productive, and less likely to get sick or use their group health insurance plan. In other words, there are cost savings for your organization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are also plenty of opportunities to get a bit more creative with your green benefits. <\/span><strong>A shift to flexible working and hybrid working arrangements<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and<\/span><strong> helping employees who live in the same area organize carpooling<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> also ensures that less commuting is needed. What\u2019s more, you can also <\/span><strong>provide electric cars<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> instead of regular cars for executives that normally are entitled to a company car in their employee benefits package.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Promote sustainable homes via information, resources, and incentives<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that only a few tweaks may be needed to make our homes more sustainable and energy efficient? But accurate and reliable information may be lacking, as is the financial incentive to make the initial installation costs worth it. That\u2019s where employers can fill in the gap &#8211; by <\/span><strong>providing information and resources that promote sustainable homes<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as well as <\/span><strong>discounts and rebates through partnering with local providers.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are solutions to incentivize employees to adopt:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Renewable energy tariffs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home insulation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Solar panels<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Smart thermostats<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LED light bulbs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Energy efficient appliances<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Environmentally-friendly cleaning products<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sustainable waste management products like composting supplies<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And more.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Introduce locally-sourced food programs and sustainable initiatives\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Introducing locally-sourced food programs and sustainable initiatives<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> encourages your employees to eat food that is available locally, rather than imported food from hundreds or even thousands of miles away. This means fewer vehicles on the road (and possible airplanes) and lower emissions associated with transporting food. Depending on your organization\u2019s size and demographics, you can also <\/span><strong>incorporate community or social giving activities.<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some programs and initiatives to consider:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Subsidized memberships for local farms cooperatives that sell farm fresh produce, eggs, dairy products, or meat<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Growing vegetables and fruits on company premises &#8211; say, on the rooftop of the building &#8211; and sharing the produce with employees<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hosting classes, workshops, and activities to promote gardening for employees with green thumbs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And more.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Thinking out-of-the-box when it comes to green employee benefits<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to green employee benefits, the sky really is your limit so think out-of-the box! Is there any way you can <strong>cut down business travel and opt for video conferencing<\/strong> instead? What about <strong>giving employees \u201cjourney days\u201d in addition to their annual leave<\/strong>? This enables them to opt for ferries, trains, or coaches rather than flying when going on holiday. Or why not organize team building events whereby <strong>employees plant trees or raise money for sustainable charities<\/strong>?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What\u2019s more, don\u2019t discount what happens behind the scene. In addition to offering sustainable employee benefits, it\u2019s also important to carefully vett the employee benefits providers and other third-party providers that you work with. Do they have similar values as your organization? What is their approach to looking after the environment? Who are their suppliers? These are some of the questions you should be asking.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For all things employee benefits, Pacific Prime is at your service!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pacificprime.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pacific Prime<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is an employee benefits and health insurance brokerage.
