Pitt Green Home Office Challenge

With many Pitt employees working hybrid schedules in person and at home, or working full-time remote, the Pitt Green Home Office Challenge was designed to help Pitt employees more holistically consider their home workspaces — and how tweaks to them might create a more comfortable, healthy, and productive environment that supports Pitt’s culture of sustainability. As a participant in the Pitt Green Home Office Challenge, you will be able to compare your score and carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) reductions with other employees. With this Challenge, you’ll also have an opportunity to tell us about your work from home practices regarding:

  • Culture of Sustainability
  • Energy
  • Eating Habits
  • Health & Well-being
  • Printing
  • Purchasing
  • Reuse
  • Transportation
  • Waste
