| Digital transformation – Paperless Office
|
| To minimise the ecological footprint of the Organisation through the reduction in the use of consumables such as paper and ink, CySEC has, since 2014, put in place a modern Central Archiving and Document Management system. Under this technologically advanced system, documents created, received and/or archived by CySEC are now entirely digital. Furthermore, CySEC adopted digital signature procedures to enable the easy and secure submission of documents and data by supervised entities. In this context, CySEC decided that all its publications, such as the Annual Reports and the Statistical Bulletins, will be available exclusively in digital form. At the same time, the Human Resources Department communicates with the employees on a regular base in order to encourage them to save energy and to inform them regarding activities which aim to protect the environment.
