By utilising LIMS's capabilities, ACTS implements the shift from paper to digital calibration certificate issuance. The LIMS was modified by the QHSE department and IT in order to produce and provide electronic certificates to stakeholders directly. In order to create and manage digital certificates and to interface the system with email or document management systems for effective distribution, ACTS started training its staff on how to use it.
Raise awareness about energy conservation, promote the use of energy-efficient appliances, and encourage employees to adopt power-saving habits to reduce electricity consumption and environmental impact.
Installing Power saver device helps us optimize energy use, minimizing wastage and ensuring efficient consumption.
Increase awareness about the hazards of improper e-waste disposal by engaging employees through Education & accessible recycling options. We aim to reduce the harmful effects of e-waste on the environment and promote sustainable electronic consumption.
Sustainability activities will focus on educating students about environmental responsibility through hands-on and engaging experiences. The school will organize recycling competitions, where students will collect and categorize waste materials and create art projects using upcycled items. Workshops on topics like water conservation, renewable energy, and sustainable gardening will be conducted, giving students practical knowledge of how to reduce their ecological footprint.
