Description
Sustainability and ESG have become essential factors to doing business in the modern world. ESG's objectives cover a broad spectrum of issues, such as reducing the emissions of carbon and other toxic wastes; human-rights abuses; and promoting and ensuring fair labor practices. ESG also addresses and prioritizes diversity and inclusion.
This practical and useful guide defines, explains, and supports the implementation of a business centric approach to ESG for the corporation. Written by practice leaders and lawyers, this guide identifies critical issues for investors, stakeholders, and counsel to fully understand the actions - and consequences - when it comes to implementing ESG policies. The creation of a more sustainable corporation will ultimately be less reliant on unsustainable practices and, with the support of its suppliers, will be more adept in responding to a rapidly changing world and marketplace.
