Case study - Sustainability initiative of MacVille Enterprises
Sam MacVille, the Business Manager of MacVille Enterprises has reviewed some of MacVille's operations
and has observed that resource use in the head office is not aligned with sustainable work practices being
promoted by the Sustainability Team. He realises that this is at least partly due to existing MacVille policy
and procedure documents not reflecting current business sector requirements. Some of the initiatives
Seamus wants to see implemented include:
1. re-programming of all air-conditioning services in the head office to be only active in normal
business hours:
a. currently air-conditioners are manually switched on and off
b. It is the responsibility of the last staff member leaving each day to turn them all off - this is
rarely done, and most commonly all air-conditioners are left running 24 hours per day.
2. lights being switched of f at night
3. better sorting of recyclable paper f rom general rubbish
4. encouraging staff use of dual-flush capability of toi lets.

MacVille Press Release (#2016-37)
New environment approach for MacVille
January 18, 2016
Mary Belucci - Business Manager
The Steering Committee at MacVille Enterprises has today released information about a new
direction the company is taking. MacVille is instituting a new work team within their head office with
the objective of assisting MacVille to become a leading practitioner in-triple bottom line sustainable
practices within the coffee industry.
The team will be tasked to review work practices within all of MacVille's activities, especially the
coffee buying, roasting and coffee shops. They will be required to develop best practice models to
increase sustainability practices across the organisation. This will involve training and educating all
staff through use of internal professional development opportunities, newsletters and other similar
approaches.
The work team is also required to develop materials to inform and educate clients and the general
community about MacVille's sustainable activities and encourage participation in activities and
practices that lead to better environmental outcomes.
MacVille will be recruiting internal and external (yet to be advertised) staff to fill places in the new
work team, and will require individuals capable of working within a team to investigate and solve
problems. Vital to this team will be the inclusion of a highly skilled individual capable of reviewing
highly technical documents and consequently developing plain language internal memos and external
publicity materials.
