solutions to allow clients to
electronically sign documents, so they
do not need to print them out and we
also store documents electronically
in a data management system, which
avoids the need to store hard copy
documents.
Recycling
All our waste paper is carefully
recycled to comply with our
sustainability policy and also to
ensure sensitive information is
disposed of in a confidential manner.
All Tollers offices have several
recycling points around the buildings,
so that staff can recycle any waste
that they may have appropriately.
We also use e-recycling when it comes
to responsibly disposing of our old IT
and electronic equipment.
Automatic lights
Tollers offices have been fitted with
sensor lighting. This ensures that
lights are not on and energy is not
wasted when areas of the office are
not in use.
Schemes
As a firm we have also introduced
certain government backed schemes
to support our staff.
Cycle to work schemes:
The Cycle to Work scheme is a
government initiative that was
introduced to encourage employees
to use a bike to commute to and from
the workplace.
It is important to us as a firm to
promote health and wellbeing in
the workplace. By supporting The
Cycle to Work scheme our employees
benefit and are able to pay for
the bike/equipment monthly over
a year through a salary sacrifice
arrangement. Not only do they save
tax on the bike/equipment they
are also reducing their own carbon
footprint, and helping achieve a more
sustainable world.
Electric car scheme
This is the most recent scheme we
have introduced and has attracted a

lot of interest from our staff. Again
this is a salary sacrifice scheme that
our staff can utilise if they wish to
lease an electric car and allows them
to pay for the car directly from their
salary before tax. This means that
our participating staff are helping to
reduce carbon emissions, improve air
quality and reduce noise pollution.
Working from Home
Our general policy allows our
solicitors to work from home for 40%
of their working week, which in turn
allows them to save on travel/petrol
costs. We also allow flexible working
so that staff who are not able to work
from home, can time their journey
to work and hopefully miss out on
sitting in gridlocked traffic. Therefore,
reducing congestion on the road.
Sustainability is important in any
business and at Tollers we are always
looking at ways in which we can
improve and enhance what we do
to support this. As a Firm we want
to ensure we are helping to make
our working and living environments
better now and for the future.
