Use these handy tips to save water (and money) around your workplace.

• install water efficient taps - leaver or mixer taps let you find the right water temperature quickly
• install dual flush toilets 
• clean and rinse with a bucket, rather than under running taps
• set air-conditioning temperature (wherever possible) no lower than 24 degrees - you'll use less water in the cooling tower and save on energy use
• check of leaks in taps, pipes and hoses
• only put the dishwasher on when it's full
• scrape instead of rinsing dishes
• wash fruit and vegies in a bowl or plugged sink, instead of a running tap
• display water usage and saving charts in the staffroom or kitchen
• make water usage updates a standing agenda item in meetings
• display posters in staff rooms and kitchen
• send water saving ideas and progress reports to staff in newsletters, emails and bulletins
• include water efficiency policies and procedures in staff induction and training programs
• establish an ideas box to share water saving ideas across your workplace
