Corporate sustainability is rapidly growing into a core consideration of more and more businesses around the world. Green initiatives and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) are awesome ways to help each employee understand how to save money for themselves, the company and as a result, help slow the decline or perhaps even save the Earth for future generations. Unfortunately it is difficult to convert the benefits of corporate social responsibility into action.
So what kinds of things are holding up progress? A survey from KPMG found that three primary reasons are slowing action.
For those that have taken action, the long term results are great. Wayne Balta, VP of corporate environmental affairs and product safety at IBM, who was cited in the KPMG report, said that "For every dollar we spend, we are getting US$1.50-2.00 back."
We also believe that with such a big mission, it is really hard to get a handle on the best way to attack this type of program - especially the employee communication to get associates engaged. The survey also showed that CSR programs can be a source of innovation and growth in many ways.
Here are a few of the many good reasons your company should consider Corporate Social Responsibility and Corporate Sustainability programs.
