At AAPT we believe we have a responsibility to utilise our resources to ensure we make a difference within the wider community.
We undertake a number of initiatives and programs – both internal and external – to give back to those who need it most. These include;
Make a Difference day - Make a Difference day encourages employees of AAPT to take a day out of their work schedule to volunteer and interact with an AAPT charity of their choice.
Dueting it for the Kids - Following the success of our exclusive backstage tours, AAPT is proud to sponsor this year’s 'Dueting it for the Kids' concert. This experience enables us to spread hope for disadvantaged and indigenous children through the magic of music.
Earth Hour 2011 – AAPT is a regular participant in EarthHour, an initiative which involves thousands of businesses and households turning off their lights as a symbol of their commitment to a sustainable future.
AAPT and the environment – AAPT takes environmental responsibility seriously. Not only does this include carbon emissions, but also the total impact of the business on the environment.
AAPT views the telecommunications industry as being at the forefront of technological improvements to ecological sustainability. AAPT has developed technologies to minimise travel, such as teleworking and teleconferencing solutions, and delivers global internetworking via substantial Internet backbone links.
All AAPT offices operate paper recycling facilities, and paper for printing is produced from a percentage of post-consumer waste. AAPT promotes electronic invoicing and bill payment, cutting down both paper used but also the resources needed to transport a physical invoice.
