The current trend is that more and more
workers and professionals prefer to join companies with social and
environmental commitment. They are more satisfied.
In fact , 50 percent of employees
responded on a survey that stated that if they had the opportunity, would
have opted for one of these companies' "green".
Working in such companies apparently
encourages workers with this new vision.
Sustainable organizations would be those in
which both employees and the organization are committed to environmental
defense and environmental responsibility.
But the key is to define what is meant by
sustainability, it is important to know why and how you can collaborate on the
issue with concrete initiatives.
As a way can be the formation of an
environmental committee to open channels for workers to effectively join the
substantive company efforts aimed at sustainability.
And the question goes beyond the simple
desire to boost "green" in their daily lives and at home, but to
understand how the company for which they work can join the fight in terms of
eco-efficiency. a guide is required in this regard that paute how employees can
participate beyond statements to collaborate with the commitment to establish a
corporate sustainability strategy.
Also establish a rewards program in which the
company is committed to sustainability requires management infrastructure,
which results in the set and define a clear business vision, goals and
objectives.
We must not forget that this is business, so
alongside the objective of achieving sustainability is that of achieving
profitability.
The goal of sustainability must have
the firm and decisive senior management for decision-making that strung the
issue and allocation of resources to achieve support. The rewards program would
be aimed at recognizing the efforts and strengthen the commitment to join with
initiatives aimed at the twin objectives of sustainability and profitability.
It is required to publicize what the
expectations are and how progress will be measured, so you have to define the
roles and responsibilities, education and training in sustainability to clarify
the technical and business skills.
Similarly there are set the way the
company will measure progress in meeting the goals, innovation and project
management.
Thus, it is imperative that workers are
involved in the planning and implementation of policies and sustainability
projects.
Forming functional teams for training and
support; as well as improvement and review of environmental and social issues
that are aimed at developing best practices; encourage workers to commit to
sustainability and reward effective efforts to reach it.
The purpose and goals of sustainability of a
company are useless if not supported and unrestricted commitment of workers.
Without them, half the battle is lost.
