The firm promotes the correct use of all consumable materials through to their disposal.
Adherence to the principles of sustainability requires, first and foremost, responsible use of all materials that consume resources, require disposal and cause pollution.
Paper, as a medium for printing documents and a primary tool for communication and the exchange of information, has in the modern world become largely — though not entirely — replaceable by digital and sharing tools.
Changes in working methods promoted by institutions (electronic proceedings) encourage a process of change that LCG has long since adopted, using tools that enable simple and secure document sharing, to avoid printing, especially of documents requiring numerous revisions.
The recent adoption of an innovative internal management system allows for the creation of a digital file for each new case, thereby avoiding the creation of paper files and their physical storage for 10 years.
This fundamental technical and organisational innovation directly results in a reduction in the use of paper and toner, which are also classified as special waste.
The accumulation of paper also leads to wasted physical space and an increased fire risk.
Except in cases of absolute necessity, LCG therefore plans to phase out the creation of paper files in the near future.
Client communications also predominantly favour digital formats.
For internal use, the use of paper on both sides and reuse, where possible and in compliance with confidentiality rules, is encouraged.
The tools adopted, through ongoing digitisation and organisational measures, allow professionals within the firm to minimise paper use and printing as much as possible.
