CLO goes green
In keeping with Novus Property Solutions’ environmental commitments and Carbon Reduction Plan, their Burton office has taken the lead in piloting a bike transportation scheme for one of their customer liaison officers, Michelle Eden. Michelle predominantly works on their Trent and Dove roofing contract in and around the Burton area, keeping all residents and stakeholders up to date and engaged throughout each stage of the project.
A keen environmentalist, Michelle is passionate about helping to reduce her personal and corporate carbon footprint. As a solution to the emissions caused by Michelle’s need to travel throughout the area, she came up with the initiative to swap to pedal power to carry out her duties.
From 17th November, Michelle has been cycling from the site cabin to the various properties where we are carrying out roof replacement works, doing pre-works inductions and CLO visits. In addition to reducing emissions, Michelle has noticed the switch to two-wheels has also helped with her physical and mental wellbeing.
Commenting on her new mode of transport, Michelle said:
“I am so pleased to feel that such a small change can help towards caring for our environment and, as the slogan says, protecting our tomorrow”.
If the pilot proves to be successful, Novus will be able to roll out the use of bikes further across the business, where applicable.
