Gen Z are looking for companies that walk the walk on sustainability, not just talk the talk. Going green isn’t just good for the planet, it’s a smart business decision that attracts and keeps top talent.
By implementing eco-friendly practices, you’re not just protecting the environment, you’re creating a conscious workplace culture that resonates with today’s generation.
So, what’s the ROI on this “investment” in Earth?
It’s a win-win! You get a dedicated, engaged workforce and a healthier planet.
Let’s break it down:
ROI stands for Return on Investment. It’s basically how much you get back for what you put in. When it comes to Earth, the “investment” is protecting its resources, and the “return” is a thriving business and a happy planet.
Here are some easy eco-actions you can take at work to attract and retain top talent, with benefits for everyone:
- Give your office a makeover with a sustainable twist! Use recycled pallets for furniture, or host a competition for teams to create eco-friendly decorations from recycled materials.
- Open the blinds, and embrace the golden hour vibe (save energy).
- Ditch the Printer Habit (unless double-sided & recycled paper!) – Go digital!
- Encourage your team to carry their refillable bottles, coffee mugs etc.
- Skip the plastic utensils, straws, and cutlery at the office.
- Reuse those notebooks, pens, and paper clips.
It’s those small efforts that can add up to big results!
