Moon Life Philippines, a Philippine insurance company, has joined the ranks of private enterprises that have gone green. The global company is serious about becoming an ecological organization.

To attain an environmentally friendly workplace, the organization went above and beyond by implementing a paperless policy. This endeavor, according to Moon Life Philippines CEO Tommy Holland, is part of a comprehensive program to go green. While the change was not easy, the management ensured that it was done correctly.

This policy obliges employees to reduce their printing usage. Memos and other papers are scanned and delivered electronically. The company’s management has also invested in online infrastructure, which will eliminate the need for paper in 90% of transactions.

Moon Life Philippines used to use roughly 25 metric tons of paper each year. In a nutshell, putting this policy into action will save the company money on paper.

Hello, everyone! Let me tell you about the Car of the Future Project, our new corporate social responsibility program. Recently, we have discussed ways on how to help our environment. We all know that using gasoline cars has a significant environmental impact. It increases air pollution, which is one of the major causes of global warming.

There are numerous options for resolving this issue. However, the only viable alternative is to manufacture more electric cars than mobile phones.

We consider this program a pledge to long-term viability because it will save money and strengthen our corporate accountability.

We anticipate everyone’s complete support in our endeavor.

Greetings, everyone! Thank you all for taking part in today’s discussion. We recently established a new corporate policy, as you are all aware. We devised a plan that compels everyone to turn off lights and equipment when they are not in use. In recent months, we have seen that our energy consumption has escalated.

We should take advantage of natural daylight by turning off or reducing electric lights when there is adequate sunlight to illuminate inside space. It is prohibited to use computers, monitors, printers, or copiers outside of business hours.

We should turn off lights when not needed. For example, turning off fluorescent lights saves energy, extends overall lamp life, and reduces replacement costs. This new policy will take effect starting today. Thank you!

Dear employees,

Good day! This letter is to let you know that we are considering opening a branch in another country. Because of new emerging markets, we believe it is high time for us to extend our business. Our cars are in high demand in some parts of the world, but they are generally undistributed. We want to capitalize on such markets and opportunities.

Japan comes to mind as an example. According to market research, car racing has become a prominent sport in the country, with one out of every four males between the ages of 21 and 30 participating in it. We believe we will be able to profit from the opportunities in Japan.

In line with our timetable, we will be sending a team to Japan next month to begin negotiations with the local officials. We want to have your support as we open our first international office.

Sincerely,

John Garcia
