Here at An Turas, we are conscious of the environment. All paper we use is reused when possible and then recycled. We are mostly Digital which means that all our staff use electronic media such as iPhones, iPads and MacBooks to both read and distribute internal and external media. All our portfolios are sent out via Email (unless requested printed) which means we can also use digital hyperlinks to your invoices/certificates/notes saving on paper and postage. At An Turas, we work mostly remotely, meaning our staff have very little travel costs, and therefore reducing their carbon footprint. Our carbon footprint is always on our conscience and that why we support Carma, with each member of staff on a monthly subscription, helping offset their carbon footprint.

At An Turas, we do not place bulk stationery orders with professional printers. Instead, we order books and stationary on demand.

Our letterheads, compliment slips, business cards, flyers etc are designed and printed in house where possible, as and when these are required. This reduces the possibilities of wasted supplies that may arise with updating company details, contacts etc. It also helps to reduce storage space enabling a smaller and cleaner office environment. It further reduces a flammable fire hazard too.

Where possible:

• Our work is carried out online and by email where possible, reducing the unnecessary printing of documents thus saving paper, toner and power.

• We send electronic files to our clients where possible rather than hard copy prints.

• We recycle all possible materials received and used, be it paper, cardboard, print cartridges or any other recyclable product used in the line of business.

• We do not print emails or correspondence unnecessarily.

...and we always remain constantly environmentally aware of the day-to-day running of our business.

MODERN SLAVERY / ANTI-SLAVERY POLICY STATEMENT

Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labour and human trafficking, all of which have in common the deprivation of a person’s liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain.

An Turas has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, and we are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains.

We are also committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chains, consistent with our disclosure obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015.

An Turas is in compliance with fair use specified under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). Most of the materials posted on our social media channels are licensed by the respective institutes under a Creative Commons License. But, it is our policy to respond to any complaint or infringement notices and take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") and other applicable intellectual property laws within the UK, USA and Canada.

• You provide the exact links to the content.

• You provide the complete name(s) of the content in question.

Our Social Media Promise: Use common sense: There is no such thing as a "private" social media site. Search engines can find old posts and comments that you thought you deleted can be found and forwarded. If you are unsure of whether you can or should post specific information, err on the side of caution and get verbal or written approval from your direct supervisor. Or, simply don't post it.

Maintain confidentiality: We not disclose any information that is confidential, personal or proprietary to social media channels.

Be accurate: Communications on our social media channels should be based on current, accurate, complete, and relevant data. Linking to a source that works best. We do not post or forward information that is or could be perceived as fabricated or untrue, unconfirmed, or deceptive. If we accidentally post inaccurate information, we will endeavour to correct it quickly and publicly, thereby maintaining our respect and credibility. Some educational posts are third party and also, we try to ensure these are a good source or education. Your practice or underpinning knowledge should not rely solely on such information.

Post informative and educational content and participate in social media networking activities.

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of information contained within our website and social media channels, clinical practice and information regarding best practice moves on rapidly. No real patient should be treated unfairly upon the information contained within the information, courses or posts on An Turas. Information published is intended to encourage further reading and extended study leading to effective documenting of continuing professional development and maintaining a personal approach to lifelong learning.

Individuals should seek professional study before delegating or making any clinical decisions that they may be called upon in practice and should be qualified and competent with any skill or application that they adopt within their practice settings. This ensures skills, knowledge and procedures that are guided by the most up-to-date polices and information are current, both evidence and research based, and do not put the patient at risk of harm or malpractice.

No liability is accepted by An Turas or the publishers / presenter, for errors or harm caused due to people following instructions provided by information published. Anyone practicing a skill or procedure must be competent, qualified and carry out their role within their employed scope of practice.

Be relevant and respectful: The use of social media is not meant as a platform to 'spam'. Rather, it is a vehicle through which you achieve your own goals while helping others. Maintain composure if you disagree with someone else's statement, including those about our company or its associates including paid adverts or those written by competitors, by being constructive and respectful. Keep comments and posts focused on the topic. Ask yourself, "Am I adding value to this post?"

Under no circumstances is it appropriate to enter into discussions that are religious, sexual, racially motivated, political or offensive to anyone in any way. Anyone posting such content will be reported, and banned from our social media sites and may have any upcoming services from An Turas revoked under such policy.

An Turas has a zero-tolerance policy for such behaviour across the company, and members / followers who fail to comply will be dealt with swiftly with little chance to negotiate excuses.

We expect all who participate in social media on behalf of An Turas and/or on a personal level to fully understand our social media policy and to adhere to its specifications. Failure to do so could put your future participation or membership at risk. These guidelines will continually evolve as new technologies and social networking tools emerge; it is your responsibility to periodically check back to make sure you're up to date.

Material contained and displayed on this website and our social media channels is for general information and education purposes only and is not intended to be relied upon by individual users or clients in making (or refraining from making) any specific professional or certified decision.
