Embedding Sustainability in All Aspects of Your Business

Many small and medium-sized manufacturers in New Hampshire may not know how to create a sustainability strategy for their business. Alternatively, others are ready to dive deeper into sustainability practices, but they may not have the staff or resources to make it happen.

This free webinar will provide examples for manufacturers to create opportunities in effective environmental and social strategies and discuss action plans.

Some of the topics include efficiencies in water, energy, food, transportation, and waste; engagements with employees, customers, the community, and the supply chain; and add performance metrics, reporting, and strong governance.
