HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE RESEARCH:
Most organizations strive to be socially responsible, but fewer actually succeed
Nearly three-quarters (74%) of our respondents say that their organizations are striving to be socially responsible to a high or very high extent, but only 59% feel that they succeed in the endeavor. In other words, while the good intentions are there, many companies are struggling with the effective implementation of their CSR goals.
Among organizations that have policies that benefit the environment, recycling is the most common practice while other initiatives are rarer
If respondents said their company was engaged in reducing their carbon footprint or other policies that benefited the environment, we then asked them to provide more detail. The picture that emerged suggests that there remains plenty of work to be done when it comes to green and sustainable initiatives. For example, even though transportation is the largest contributor of greenhouse gases in the U.S.,8 only a third of this group of respondents say that their organization encourages carpooling, and just 18% are using green or sustainable vehicles for work-related transport. The most common initiatives are related to recycling and composting (69%).
