Paper Reduction Initiative

A paper"less" office is a work environment in which the use of paper is eliminated or greatly reduced. Going paperless can save money, boost productivity, save space, make documentation and information sharing easier, keep personal information more secure, and make for a more eco-friendly office. We have a large employee base that are remote or travel and paper is an outdated and ineffective tool to exchange information for Cubex®.

We can all make a few more small adjustments by using  tools and technology to greatly reduce our paper usage. Here are just a few ideas: 

• Use the programs/apps available to you in your Office 365 for organizing your notes, document storage, accessibility, and sharing.

• Swap out your single-use notebook for a Rocketbook and have your notes sync to your favorite program for easy accessibility - Slack, OneNote, Dropbox, email, Trello, etc.

• Have your notes at your fingertips. Switch to digital notes, like OneNote or Evernote to stay organized. Say goodbye to rummaging through paper notebooks to find the information you need when you need it. 

• and more . . .
