TimeTec Carbon Footprint Reduction Efforts
TimeTec is an organization that understands our responsibility towards sustainable environment. We are constantly looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint in our business operations through various ways and in the process, we persuade our customers, suppliers and employees to do the right thing as well.

Our business operations over the years have impacted the environment in one way or another and and we are consciously working to reduce our carbon footprint. Over the years, we have taken steps to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, the waste we produce and the resources we use in our everyday business for our better future.

 
 
TimeTec is using technology such as wireless networks, laptops and projectors in meeting rooms, reducing our office paper consumption significantly. Since 2013, the Company had stopped issuing paper cheques to our local suppliers, and we have replaced them with the implementation of paperless online payment process. The online payment transfer is one of our efforts to be more involved in Carbon Accounting by eliminating the travelling need for the suppliers to collect and bank in the cheques into the bank. TimeTec also provides remote support, where technical support can solve customers’ problem from the office, reduces greenhouse gas emissions from commuting. On top, we use video conferencing, teleconferencing and web conferencing extensively to reduce unnecessary travel when possible.

All our product packagings are made from 100% recycled paper and we have stopped supplying printed resources by utilizing links from the Internet and loading resources in CDs. And one of our continuing efforts in reducing carbon footprint, we have invented and developed TimeTec's revolutionary clocking method deploying GPS, NFC, Beacon and smartphone technology in time attendance and guard patrolling solution. The effort in introducing the much simpler clocking alternatives has reduced the demand for hardware and their packaging materials, and consequently lessen manufactury frequency and transportation, but achieve the same clocking and verification authenticity, with added mobility.

Going forward, the Company will always be looking out for ways to reduce our carbon footprint to play our part in this world of ours. Any suggestions are welcome, email to info@timeteccloud.com.
