The Best Recruiters (CONT’D FROM PAGE 20)
on board with the plans. They are the best teachers and advocates to help make this a success, but they can also derail your efforts mightily. Don’t let your recruiters get ter- ritorial with their efforts. It’s critical that they understand the goal is not to replace them, or that their work is not valued. This is a way to scale the recruiting function and have the best people possible helping fill each open role on your team. If everyone can come to work with the mind- set that it is part of everyone’s job to attract the best talent – especially in mid and large companies – everyone wins!

DS Smith Removes 313 Million Pieces Of Plastic From Its Packaging UK and U.S. based DS Smith confirmed that it has “de- signed out” over 313 million pieces of plastics in the last two years alone as part of its plastic replacement program. The significant figure equates to more than three million units per week, as customers and consumers demonstrate demand for fibre-based packaging as an alternative to hard-to-recycle plastics. To meet this demand, DS Smith designers have worked with customers to create thousands of new innovations to replace plastic. Solutions have been created to remove everyday plastic items including ready-meal trays, plastic fruit and vegetable punnets and plastic six pack rings that pollute the planet. This all comes at a time when campaign groups are highlighting the amount of plastic that ends up as waste, making it more important than ever to remove them at the design phase. Samantha Upham, Sustainability Business Partner – Sales, Marketing & Innovation, commented, “With our help, customers are accelerating their ambitions to remove problem plastics from their products. By using our Circular Design Metrics, we can easily show not just where plastic can be replaced, but how circular their packaging is right now and where we can make improvements together. All 700 of our designers have been trained in our Circular De- sign Principles, which means we can design out problem plastics at inception stage and find alternative fibre-based solutions which deliver the required attributes.” Over the next year, DS Smith will continue to drive adoption of fibre-based alternatives amongst customers in response to consumer demand for plastic alternatives. In a recent survey commissioned by DS Smith, 4 in 10 consum- ers (41 percent) wanted packaging made from alternative renewable sources.
