Statistics Finland and 170 other Finnish organisations are members of the Green Office network. WWF Finland has granted Statistics Finland's Helsinki office the right to use the Green Office logo as a proof that Statistics Finland's environmental system fulfils the required criteria. The criteria include the planning of a practical environmental programme, informing and educating of the personnel and reporting about environmental matters.
WWF's Green Office is an environmental service for offices which encourages personnel to reduce the burdening of the environment and at the same time achieve savings in material and energy costs.
The emphasis in Statistics Finland's environmental programme is on the reduction of energy and paper consumption. For example, the targets in statistics production are increase of electronic data collecting and expansion of electronic publishing. The objective of the programme is also to guide the personnel in choosing practices that save the environment in printing, recycling and sorting, and other everyday activities.
Rights to the Green Office logo have at the moment been granted to good 100 offices in Finland. WWF assesses annually the achievement of the targets and the fulfilment of the criteria of Green Office system at these offices.
