NW Jobs People’s Picks 2008: Most Eco-Friendly Company
Watch us on an upcoming episode of Evening Magazine. We live our work. Not only do we provide environmental services as our core business, but we also consider our triple bottom line as a top priority. As environmental scientists and engineers, we are well aware of the impacts of urban growth, industrial processes, and too many cars. From recycled furniture to reusable coffee filters…our staff are passionate about maintaining a low carbon footprint, reducing waste, and conserving energy, water, and other resources. Herrera staff love our commuter bonus subsidy program that encourages employees to get out of their cars and reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. We have an avid bike commute group that mentors new cyclists with bike maintenance and safety tips. In place of cars, company-owned bikes are provided for commuting to downtown meetings, and fuel efficient vehicles are used for longer distance trips if teleconferencing is not appropriate. For the past 2 years the firm has committed to a “carbon neutral” status and after all carbon reducing practices are employed, the company purchases carbon offsets for the remaining emissions.
As reported in the Sunday, November 9th edition of the Seattle Times, Herrera was voted winner of Most Eco-Friendly Company, and a finalist in 4 other People’s Picks categories: Favorite Seattle Area Small Company, Favorite Office Party, Most Family Friendly and Most Unusual Perks.
