Reaching those with the power to make a difference
Successful energy management programs require informed and involved employees. Giant Eagle increase awareness of energy management initiatives through formal internal recognition, including sending congratulatory emails and packets of information to managers of ENERGY STAR labeled buildings. Two poster campaigns promote energy awareness during Earth Day and Energy Awareness Month. To publicize conservation measures and EPA recognition, all stores broadcast an audio spot highlighting the Partner of the Year Award and general energy conservation measures. Finally, Giant Eagle has also published energy management related articles in its company newsletter, Insights. This newsletter directly reaches approximately 26,000 store and corporate employees.
