KENANGA ANNUAL REPORT 2020

106 4 1 2 3 5 6 7 SUSTAINABILITY STATEMENT Water Efficiency We track our water consumption year-on-year to better understand our water use and to implement initiatives designed to reduce, reuse and recycle. A rainwater harvesting system was installed on the rooftop of Kenanga Tower in 2016 to collect and channel rainwater for sanitary use and for the benefit of all Kenanga Tower tenants. In 2020, our water consumption* was reduced to 15,946 m³, from 18,661 m³ in 2019. As with the electricity consumption, it is likely correlated with the WFH policy in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. * Calculation note: figures for water consumption have been calculated from water bills. Managing Waste We are conscious of the office waste we produce, with paper and e-waste being the two primary areas of focus. We comply with waste management regulatory requirements and have appointed licensed waste disposal contractors to manage and dispose of our solid waste. Paper waste is sorted and channelled for recycling, while computer, media storage, and other e-waste, are routed for proper destruction, repurposing and recycling. We supported this international campaign for the 11 th consecutive year by switching off lighted signs and nonessential lights at our premises nationwide. We held 3 pop quizzes (over 200 participants per session) in conjunction with #GreenAtWork, to raise awareness of current environmental issues and to challenge our employees’ knowledge on the campaign themes for 2020. Pop Quiz SUSTAINABI L I TY STATEMENT Promoting Environmental Awareness The annual #GreenAtWork campaign, introduced in 2017 was aimed at creating awareness and understanding about personal environmental impact amongst our employees. This campaign continued in 2020 despite employees working remotely for the majority of the year, with themes relating to food waste, energy savings at home and zero waste lifestyles. Earth Hour 2020
