California Staffing and Outsourcing Firm Employs Green Practices

March 21, 2011 - PRLog -- March 21, 2011 HOUSTON -  Professional staffing firm CVPartners, Inc. of San Francisco, CA recently joined the Green Business Bureau (GBB) to become green business certified.

As an organization, CVPartners, Inc., and its divisions (RDP Clinical Outsourcing, CVPartners in Technology, HC Partners, CVPartners Executive Search, and R&D Partners),  collectively strive to not only preserve, but to improve the environment.  

“We believe that it is through individual and collective effort that our employees make a difference,” says CVPartners, Inc.’s Kent Gray.

Gray says that all of the organization’s offices have not only implemented recycling programs, but they’ve all pushed to go paperless, as well.  The company also sources recycled products whenever possible, which includes printing business cards and marketing materials on recycled paper.

In addition, CVPartner’s clinical outsourcing division, RDP Clinical Outsourcing, has implemented a business model for the clinical research industry that reduces the carbon footprint of travel through the regionalization of clinical activities, and the strategic concentration of investigator site locations.  This model is a more cost effective alternative to a traditional outsourcing approach in which office based resources require significant travel to get to the investigative sites.  

According to Gray, “’Going Green’ through the Green Business Bureau has created an environment of continuous improvement on our existing practices, enabling us to use the resources provided by GBB to further our education and understanding of environmental impact, and to implement new practices both now and in the future.”

CVPartners, Inc. chose the GBB based on the resources that are available through its certification.

“Understanding how the environment is impacted throughout our daily lives, as well as how we conduct business is a “value add” that GBB offered over other programs,” says Gray.

Gray adds that as CVPartners, Inc. moves forward, the company is looking forward to “the journey itself”.

“We believe finding new ways to help our environment and assist our employees to become better stewards of the planet, can only pay dividends to ourselves and our children,” says Gray.
