World Green Organisation (WGO) has recently initiated the Green Office Awards Labelling Scheme (GOALS) with core supporting organisation Junior Chamber International (JCI). The scheme aims to accelerate positive changes in workplace through execution of the Best Green Practices. Participating companies will not only benefit from the green training provided by WGO and technical training partners, but also the green office assessment and advice covering different aspects, such as energy conservation, waste reduction, green procurement, and hence, cost saving.

As recognition of their contribution to environment, successful applicants will be awarded with WGO's Green Office Label and United Nations - UNMDG's Better World Company Label. The scheme is opened for application now. Please click here for more information.
