On September 18, Egis team in Ukraine gathered for a corporate online training dedicated to waste management and environmental responsibility. The event took place ahead of World Cleanup Day and became part of our educational program aimed at fostering eco-awareness and embedding sustainable practices into daily work.<\/p>\n
The session was opened by Oksana Zatvornytska, Director of Egis in Ukraine<\/strong>, who emphasized that the company\u2019s environmental strategy covers not only decarbonization and ISO certification, but also small everyday steps. She shared internal initiatives such as replacing single-use tableware with reusable alternatives, using personal cups, and consciously reducing office waste.<\/p>\n Alla Krasnozhon, <\/strong>Lead<\/strong> of the Environment and Climate Service Line<\/strong>, explained why ESG is a much broader concept than \u201cenvironment\u201d alone, highlighting its social and governance aspects. She presented the Group\u2019s ESG goals \u2014 including carbon reduction, ESG integration, and continuous team upskilling \u2014 and shared examples of local initiatives, such as cooperation with communities and students. She also recalled one of the most significant 2025 milestones: planting more than 77,000 trees in Rivne region this spring in partnership with Treepilya and with the support of the Egis Foundation.<\/p>\n Yulia Krut, Head of the Administrative Department<\/strong>, presented data on office emissions, noting that they increased significantly during power outages. At the same time, she stressed:<\/p>\n \u201cEven in challenging times, when the energy system experienced disruptions, our office became a kind of shelter for the team. This allowed us not only to maintain work processes but also to stay close to each other. Still, we must think about reducing emissions \u2014 through alternative transportation, energy saving, and online meetings instead of travel.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Anastasi<\/strong>i<\/strong>a Fe<\/strong>i<\/strong>er, Environmental and Climate Specialist<\/strong>, continued with the topic of conscious waste management. She shared global practices, including findings from the Ocean Cleanup project, which identified 1.8 trillion plastic particles in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. She also presented local statistics: every Ukrainian generates 300\u2013500 kg of waste annually, about 10 million tons in total, with only 3\u20135% being recycled. Plastics account for 13\u201320% (around 80 kg per person per year).<\/p>\n She highlighted modern recycling methods and the economic potential of waste as a resource for producing new materials and energy. Properly sorted materials \u2014 plastic, glass, paper, and metal \u2014 can re-enter the economy as raw materials for new products, or be used for biogas and compost production, supporting both the energy sector and agriculture. Her key message was simple: everyone can make a difference, starting with daily habits at home or in the office.<\/em><\/p>\n For Egis, such initiatives are a way not only to educate, but also to unite the team around shared values. This year, as part of World Cleanup Day, the Egis Ukraine team joined the Let\u2019s Do It, Ukraine eco-movement and took part in cleaning up a central location in Kyiv. Once again, we confirmed that environmental awareness and sustainable practices are integral to Egis\u2019s corporate culture and our contribution to Ukraine\u2019s sustainable future.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On September 18, Egis team in Ukraine gathered for a corporate online training dedicated to waste management and environmental responsibility.
