Sustainability is currently a big concern for businesses, but what does it actually mean, and why should your business be worried about it? To help answer this, Workplace Law, the employment law, HR and H&S experts has launched Sustainable Workplaces 2008: Special Report, which clarifies confusion over what the broad term ’sustainability’ actually means for business, and outlines the case for it: in terms of both the environment and the financial savings it could bring.

Over the past few years ’sustainability’ has become a buzzword, seemingly dropped into articles whenever the subject of global warming, climate change, pollution or recycling comes up. The report covers the whole spectrum of sustainability, from Corporate Social Responsibility to waste management, to give businesses all the information they need on this increasingly popular topic in one place.

Sustainable practices can improve your business’ reputation and save you money, and this is highlighted by the ‘real world’ case studies within this report on companies such as Tesco, KPMG, Wal-Mart and Marks & Spencers. This report explains the business case for sustainability alongside the environmental and social cases.

Written by a variety of big names in the sustainability business (Envirowise and Bureau Veritas to name but two), Sustainable Workplaces 2008: Special Report will help you to get to grips with the often-confusing subject of sustainability and help you to apply the concept in the workplace.

The report answers key questions such as:

* Why do I need to concern myself with sustainability?
* What can I do to make sure my business is sustainable?
* Why is sustainability to do with more than just the environment?
* How can sustainable practices save my business time and money?

The report includes an A-Z guide to sustainability-related legislation, supported by further chapters explaining how your business should comply with the law. Furthermore, the report explains how implementing sustainable practices will help your business use fewer resources, meaning lower bills, and profit from the environmental benefits of sustainability.
