At BT, when we’re developing our products and services we look at the environmental impact and we make sure that we’re compliant with legislation. We try to find ways to improve working conditions for employees. And, we look at ways that we can better communities. Perhaps that is why BT is widely recognised for its thought-leadership programmes and achievements.
