Waste Management

Currently, Salik is developing a waste management approach that will be aligned with HSE policy. The Company produces mainly office waste related to day‑to‑day operations. In 2024, Salik generated 1,972.1 kg of waste, of which 11.9% (234.5 kg) was recyclable.

The Salik headquarters have adopted digital documentation, with digital signatures used for most documents and minimal physical printing required. The shift to a paperless system enables customers to complete all transactions seamlessly via the smart Salik app and website. This initiative has seen nearly 99% of Salik’s customers adopt digital self‑services, significantly reducing paper usage and waste.

Within its offices, Salik promotes recycling by providing designated bins for sorting recyclable and non‑recyclable materials. The collected waste is managed in compliance with strict environmental protocols. The following actions are taken to reduce waste in Salik’s headquarters:

• Using biometric security systems in place of plastic access cards.
• Switching to reusable utensils, plates, glasses, and cups instead of single‑use plastic bottles and plates.
• Implementing waste segregation.
• Tracking the amount of recycled waste.
• Holding awareness sessions for employees on recycling practices.

In alignment with its ESG principles, Salik has also prioritised sustainable IT infrastructure. The Company selects IT components made from 70% recyclable materials, reducing its carbon footprint and supporting a circular economy approach by focusing on repairing, reusing, and rebuilding hardware components.
