GHG Emission Reduction through Videoconferencing

ideo conferencing helps reduce carbon emissions as well as increase productivity by accelerating decision-making and cutting travel costs. kt has built 90 video conference rooms so staff can hold meetings via PC. Now staff members can participate in conferences whenever and wherever they are.

Smart Working Center

By establishing a Smart Working Center in all major buildings, employee work efficiencies have improved, while mobile combustion has been reduced. In addition, with the establishment of a network platform office environment for working at home, kt is encouraging all employees to participate in and practice ‘Green IT’.

Building an e-Office Environment

e-Office refers to an optimal working environment that minimizes environmental impact by adopting information technology. We shifted a paper-based offline approval process to an electronic business approval system, and operate an e-cabinet system whereby various documents are stored and managed as electronic fi les rather than as paper printouts stored in fi le cabinets.

Minus (-) Energy, Plus (+) Love Campaign

kt is simultaneously reducing energy and actively participating in the Ministry of Knowledge Economy’s ‘Minus (-) Energy, Plus (+) Love’ campaign. This social contribution campaign is to practice energy conservation while providing energy welfare to the lower income class. The energy amount saved at homes and office buildings during the months of July and August, when energy consumption is highest, can be converted to pay for heating cost for needy neighbors under the campaign participant’s name.

Paperless Campaign

We are promoting the use of AnyFax, an e-fax system, as part of an ongoing drive to achieve a truly paperless office environment. With the introduction of the e-fax system, monthly paper use per person dropped by approximately 50 sheets (based on A4 size paper).
