Workplace Assessment & Solutions Limited Sustainability Actions

Explains workplace ESG factors

ESG represents the environmental, social, and governance impacts stemming from an organisation’s activities. The three pillars are described as: Environmental – how an action or choice uses energy and other resources, and in what ways it creates waste; Social – how an action affects people in the broadest, most diverse sense; Governance – how decisions are made, and whether those decisions are honest, ethical, and fair.

Promotes measuring and reporting

Instead of greenwashing, the guidance says to measure and report regularly, assess where the organisation is starting, and set measurable, science-based targets so that efforts can be linked to results. It also says to solicit feedback from employees and the communities where the organisation operates.

Supports employee resource groups

Employees themselves, through employee resource groups (ERGs), are described as spontaneously responding to crises, like the New Zealand floods, without any directive from leadership. This is presented as evidence of a culture of community support and engagement with ESG values in the workplace.

Highlights flexible working

Many companies have shifted towards remote working as a rule rather than an exception. The benefit is that businesses offer flexibility and work-life balance to employees while helping the environment by reducing harmful gases released in the atmosphere by daily commutes. Remote working is also described as reducing air pollution, single-use plastics, power consumption in big offices, and paper printing.

Encourages workplace volunteering

One way organisations meet the challenge of isolation is to bring teams together at regular intervals and offer paid time off to volunteer. The content suggests volunteering for the environment, such as planting trees or cleaning up beaches or parks, to help employees connect, give them time in nature, and further sustainability initiatives in the local community.

Uses workplace wellbeing research
