A brief description of how sustainability is included in new employee orientation:
In 2020, HR began hosting optional, monthly New Employee Welcome Sessions to incoming Cairo University employees. During the orientation, staff are provided a waste sorting brochure explaining the standardized waste system at CU, as well as a one page brochure about sustainability engagement and lifestyle options supported by CU. Additionally, HR offered optional campus tours, which includes discussion about sustainable commute options, the Cairo University Hospital Tower's LEED Silver certification, the CU Farmers Market, waste sorting,
and CU's commitment to procuring local and sustainable food.
