Sustainability has never been more important
The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Regulations 2024 transpose the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (EU) 2022/2464 which arises from the European Green Deal’s climate change action objectives.
This is to further enhance the disclosure by companies on climate and environmental data.
Therefore, both businesses and individuals are looking at different ways to reduce their carbon footprint.
One of the most effective and sometimes overlooked strategies is incorporating a move to the use of coworking hubs. CoWorking spaces offer flexibility and collaboration opportunities as well as contributing to a greener planet by reducing carbon footprint.
The Irish Government saw the importance of this when they set up Connected Hubs to try to bring hubs together all across the country.
1. Optimised Use of Office Space
Traditional office spaces aren’t always designed or planned for optimal use. The expertise may not exist inhouse and wasted office space equals high costs. With coworking hubs, office space is shared and used more efficiently. This benefits businesses and companies by reducing their overhead costs.
2. Efficient Energy Consumption
CoWorking spaces bring people together to share resources in one place. Energy prices have never been higher. High heating costs over the long Autumn/Winter period in Ireland can be avoided by using a coworking space. Reduce your utility bills in your business and partner with a CoWorking Space.
3. Reduced Commuting
Commuting is one of the biggest contributors to carbon footprints, especially in urban areas with heavy traffic and limited public transport options. Ireland has poor connectivity outside of Dublin. CoWorking hubs allow people to work closer to home. This cuts down on the need for long commutes by car or public transportation and gives personal time back to your Employee. Greater work life balance is what most employees have on their wish list.
4. Promoting a Paperless Environment
One of the easiest ways to reduce your carbon footprint is to go paperless. CoWorking spaces encourage the use of digital tools which reduces the need for paper and physical documents.
CoWorking spaces offer flexibility, and also play a crucial role in fighting climate change. By utilising space, sharing resources, and encouraging sustainability, coworking hubs provide an eco-friendly alternative to traditional office spaces.
