Operations

Company Carbon Footprint
Given its move to a virtual workforce, Scope 3 discretionary and project travel data is reported as MeetGreen’s corporate carbon footprint.




Social Responsibility
MeetGreen’s approach to social responsibility employs policies and training for staff, community service and project work. We conduct ourselves ethically according to our motto “Be a Good Human”, and commit to abide by the laws impacting our activities, and exceeding requirements where regulatory guidance may be lacking.
Healthy Work Approach
Event planning is consistently ranked in the top five “Most Stressful Occupations” and MeetGreen is striving for a healthier approach. We manage events in a strategic manner and keep our team’s focus on anticipating needs and following an agreed upon plan constantly updated during the planning cycle. In short, there are very few “emergencies” which need immediate attention.
To stay refreshed, focused and in a state of well-being, our team is not expected to respond to planning requests evenings and weekends unless it is immediately prior to an event or they are onsite and giving it 100% of their attention.
We share our philosophy to invite conversation and inspire others to join us in our commitment to employee well-being.
