Sustainable workforce
Alongside the responsibility imperative, net zero is an economic opportunity that drives growth. The challenges we face are complex and urgent, and greater pressure calls for a better approach to Sustainability be it environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues. By combining human ingenuity and experience with technology and data, we create both commercial and societal value.
Aligning Sustainability and workforce strategies will be key in responding to new challenges: from net zero transformation to sustainability reporting. Our skills, powered by technology, enable you to make data-driven decisions, quickly, and deliver positive change you can prove. This is crucial as we’re reaching a tipping point: being too slow to act will cost organisations more than changing the way they operate.
We know employees are a key asset contributing to sustainable business and societal value. A strong fit-for-purpose workforce strategy and a supportive, inclusive and fair employee culture is essential to getting the most for your employees and for your business. We can help you both meet these needs as we support you to future-proof your organisation.
Net-zero transformation and the workforce
Businesses are trying to set realistic net zero targets and are having to change their strategies to ensure they can deliver on them - all whilst having to contend with a perfect storm of rapidly rising stakeholder awareness and expectations around Net Zero, new legislation coming into force globally, requiring increasingly detailed sustainability-related disclosures, and a global shortage of capability to address this completely new paradigm.
The challenges organisations face are complex and urgent, and greater pressure calls for a better approach. Connecting commerciality with responsibility is critical to business success - driving change and creating confidence and trust in the actions that follow. The shift to deliver a NZT strategy requires a significant cultural and mindset shift, reflective of a sustainable, environmentally and socially positive future. We help organisations align all parties around the vision and strategy, creating lasting success and behaviour change to enable net zero goals and supporting the workforce transition through tailored change management. As part of your net-zero journey, there are many things to consider in relation to your workforce as you transform: leadership, culture, reward, fairness, skills and data will all play a key part in a successful decarbonisation journey.
