Smart phones have become more or less a way of life for most urbane denizens; it combines the functionality of a mobile phone and computer all in one handy gadget. Platinum Packaging has partnered with Rapid Communications which has subsidized the cost of smart phones by 25% for employees as well as offered a good credit plan to enable the majority of staff members to own one. The project is being trialed at Platinum Packaging and once the initial teething problems are overcome, it will be replicated across the rest of the group.
