Energy efficiency targets achieved
Direct footprint management
AXA Australia has set itself a goal to reduce its electricity consumption by 20 per cent, water usage by 10 per cent and office paper consumption by 2.5 per cent by the end of 2009, with a 2006 baseline year. These targets have been achieved one year ahead of schedule. Initiatives which contributed to this success included the relocation of offices to more energy efficient buildings, the introduction of combined printer / copier / scanner / fax machines which save energy, and numerous campaigns to raise environmental awareness among employees. A new set of targets is being developed.
