Moreover, the company aligns its business strategy with its sustainable development agenda, to reduce specific resource consumption, resulting in the reduction of the environmental footprint. Additionally, Genpact has consolidated a number of its offices into intelligent buildings and achieved measurable water conservation, waste minimization, and transport emission reduction.
