WATCH the third in the video series of Sustainability in 60 Seconds. Ever wondered what the “S” in ESG stands for?
It’s all about people — how your business treats employees, customers, suppliers and communities. It covers diversity, fair labour, wellbeing, community engagement and respect for human rights.
Companies that put people first see higher loyalty, stronger innovation and greater resilience. McKinsey found that firms with diverse executive teams can be up to 36% more profitable.
And with social performance increasingly weighted in standards like CSRD and GRI, this isn’t just good ethics — it’s smart business.
This episode explores:
✅ What the social pillar really means
✅ Why social impact drives business success
✅ How to embed fairness and inclusion into your culture Because when people thrive, businesses do too.
Green Circle Solutions helps organisations strengthen the “S” in ESG through purpose-led strategy and stakeholder engagement.
