Sustainability





        Matters









        Development




              Economic Progress and Social
                    Dr. Gaurav Chawla continued,
                   “However, sustainability is a lot more
                   than environmental management, it is
                   also about economic progress and
                   social development. Social concerns
                   such as inclusivity, promoting work-life
                   balance, promoting employees’ health
                   and wellbeing, sourcing supplies locally,
                   and stimulating entrepreneurship are
                   all part of the sustainability agenda.”


                    He concluded, “Sustainability equates
                   with not just being profitable, but also
                   as good business sense. Research
                   suggests that more and more
                   customers are willing to reward
                   businesses seen as sustainable by
                   buying products and services from
                   them. Many governments and
                   international agencies (like the EU) offer
                   tax rewards and other monetary
                   incentives in order to promote this

                   cause. There is also evidence that
                   employees take greater pride in their
                   work and are therefore more engaged
                   and productive.”


                    Following on from this, we focus on                                                             SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER. 2023 | ISSUE 32
