Organisational Capacity
Introduction
Sustainable development needs to be embedded into all aspects of
organisational practice and operations; taking this opportunity to
reduce resource consumption and save money makes good business
sense. To enable this to be effective requires a commitment to
developing and supporting the workforce to understand and implement
sustainable development practice across the work of the
organisation and, in addition, to work together to reduce carbon
and save the organisation money by the efficient and management of
resources.
This will include:
- sustainable approaches to the recruitment and management of the
workforce
- embedding sustainable development into job descriptions, staff
development programmes and performance management.
- reduction of waste, waste management, energy use, consumption
of resources and reduction of transport emissions;
- contributing to the health and quality of life of the local
community
- implementing sustainable procurement practices
- reducing the carbon footprint and greenhouse gas emissions of
the organisation
