Consultancy and accountancy firm Deloitte reduced its UK office temperatures by 2 C (3.6 F) to cut costs amid the war-driven energy crisis, according to local reports.
The company informed its 23,000 staff in Britain of the plans this month, expecting it to provide savings of about £75,000 ($90,000) for December, said BBC.
The move came as other major consultancies, such as KPMG and PwC, temporarily closed some of their offices in the UK over Christmas to save energy.
A report from the Financial Times said Deloitte cut temperatures in some of its other offices across Europe, as well.
Deloitte aims to reduce its carbon emissions from business travel by 50% per full-time equivalent from 2019 levels by 2030.
