Tuatahi First Fibre Tackling Scope 3 Emissions

Tuatahi First Fibre is one of Aotearoa’s leading wholesale fibre broadband providers. With a team of over 250 and a fibre network reaching households and businesses in Auckland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Hawke’s Bay, Taranaki, Manawatū-Whanganui, and Wellington, they are committed to fostering connected, thriving and innovative communities.   

In line with their commitment to environmental responsibility, Tuatahi First Fibre has achieved Toitū Envirocare Carbonreduce certification, underscoring their dedication to measuring and managing their carbon footprint. They have set ambitious targets, aiming for a 75% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 and achieving net-zero Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2040. 

As part of tackling Scope 3 emissions, Tuatahi partnered with Workride to bring New Zealand’s ride-to-work benefit program to their employees. This initiative reflects not just their commitment to sustainability but also their genuine focus on supporting staff well-being, offering a cost-effective, eco-friendly way to encourage both mental and physical health..

“Workride has been a fantastic partner in helping us support our staff to reduce our Scope 3 emissions. The program has made implementing a ride to work benefit a lot less onerous. One of the major benefits is that their IRD sign off provides reassurance for us as an organisation, and the outcome we get is that our staff are healthier, happier, and ultimately contributing to a better planet.”

Workride asked Zac what was the biggest surprise to their team through using our service?

"We’ve loved seeing staff swapping car keys for bike helmets. It’s better for the environment, cuts down on traffic congestion, is fantastic for their fitness, and they’ve got the best parking perks too! Our partnership with Workride is just getting started."
