£[AMOUNT] per day. The proceeds of the parking charge will be donated to our charity of the year [provided to our Sustainability Team’s budget]. 5.4 [To play our part in improving air quality in the communities we live and work you will not be permitted to park a Diesel car in any of our car parks.] 6. Dress Code Policy: sustainable clothing allowance and uniform care 6.1 It is important that your clothing and appearance promote a positive and professional image. This contributes to our reputation and the development of our business. 6.2 As part of this, we encourage everyone to consider the environmental footprint of the clothes they wear to work and discourage the wearing of low cost “Fast Fashion” items; inexpensive, low quality clothing produced rapidly by mass-market retailers. 6.3 In support of this, we offer each employee a clothing allowance [at the start of your employment OR annually] up to the value of £[AMOUNT]. This can be used to purchase sustainable clothing for work (for example, garments made from organic or recycled materials and/or sourced from Net Zero suppliers). 6.4 Please contact the Sustainability Team to claim your clothing allowance. Purchases can be made from our approved suppliers only. You will be expected to provide copies of your receipts and will be reimbursed in the next payroll run following your purchase. 6.5 Our uniforms are [made from organic OR recycled materials OR sourced from Net Zero suppliers]. This is more expensive for us and we therefore ask you to bear this in mind when using and cleaning your uniform. You are expected to follow any washing or other care recommendations that we may issue from time to time. 7. Disciplinary Policy: environmental misconduct 7.1 The following are examples of matters that will normally be regarded as misconduct and will be dealt with under our Disciplinary Policy: (a) breaches of our policies, including our Dress Code, Expenses Policy [INSERT OTHER GREEN EMPLOYMENT HANDBOOK CLAUSES]; (b) failure to comply with any legal or professional obligation or regulatory requirements (including environmental law); (c) acting in a manner which we consider has a detrimental impact on our ability to achieve of our Net Zero Target; (d) acting in a manner which we consider to be damaging to the climate or the environment during time and activities that are not part of your ordinary, reasonable working life (for example, being caught littering would constitute misconduct, however driving a petrol or diesel car – whilst not encouraged if more sustainable options are viable – would not); (e) acting in a manner which we consider is likely to damage or has damaged our reputation as an environmentally conscious business; or (f) the deliberate concealment of any of the above matters. This list is intended as a guide and is not exhaustive.
