Batelco Nasna Team Encourages Staff to Recycle

August 27, 2019

In line with its ongoing efforts to raise awareness about reducing the consumption of single-use plastic, Batelco’s CSR Team ‘Nasna’ has launched an internal initiative across the company to encourage staff to recycle plastic items used in the workplace.

The new initiative, which will be ongoing, forms part of a series of initiatives launched by Batelco in order to spread awareness and educate its employees on matters concerning the environment.

As part of the initiative, recycling bins have been distributed throughout the Batelco Hamala Campus to encourage employees to dispose of their plastic waste responsibly. Recycled items will be collected on a weekly basis by NIDUKKI, the waste management, cleaning and recycling service provider with over 30 years of experience in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

Batelco Nasna strives to support environmental initiatives that contribute towards maintaining sustainability, and to embark on this latest drive, the Company recently launched an environmental awareness programme with a lecture held for its employees about the harmful effects of plastic on the environment, particularly on our seas and oceans. Batelco’s programme has been introduced in support of the global environmental awareness trends and the national initiative launched by the Supreme Council for the Environment to reduce the use of single-use plastic products across Bahrain.
