Dell is committed to fully integrating environmental performance into overall business and operational management. Dell manufacturing and operations facilities around the globe maintain a strong focus on minimizing impact on the environment while providing a safe workplace environment for our employees.
Dell's direct business model yields strong production inventory and capital investment efficiencies that translate into tangible benefits for the environment. Because all products are made to order, Dell currently maintains only three days of inventory for most parts and equipment, which keeps the environmental impact of warehousing to a minimum. Components and parts are only ordered and shipped to Dell when they are ready to be assembled into the final computer product, thereby saving energy and operational costs associated with storing inventory.
Keeping our employees healthy and well is a high priority, and Dell is committed to providing a safe workplace for our employees. Dell's occupational health, safety, and wellness programs are designed to meet our employees' needs, motivating them to stay healthy and safe as they go about their daily activities both at work and at home. The Environmental, Health, and Safety team works closely with manufacturing, facilities, design, and process engineers, with a goal to continually improve the safety of our operations.
