En ny rapport fra IBM konkluderer, at selvom 95 % af virksomheder har ESG-mål, har kun 10 % gjort betydelige fremskridt mod at opfylde dem. Rapporten tager udgangspunkt i to surveys foretaget af IBM, hvor den ene adspurgte 20.000 forbrugere i 34 lande og den anden 2.500 topledere i 22 sektorer.
Ifølge rapporten har 80 % af forbrugere mistillid til virksomheders bæredygtighedsudsagn.
Rapporten konkluderer også:
- 76% of executives say ESG is central to their business strategy.
- Roughly three in four (76%) now view ESG as central to their business strategy and more than 7 in 10 (72%) approach it as a revenue enabler rather than cost center.
- Roughly two-thirds of consumers say environmental sustainability (68%) and social responsibility (65%) are very or extremely important to them.
- And more than 7 in 10 agree that they would be more willing to apply for a job with a company they consider environmentally sustainable or socially responsible.
- More than 40% even say they would be willing to accept a lower salary to work for an employer that is environmentally sustainable or socially responsible—and nearly one in four of those who changed jobs in the last 12 months say they did just that. Overall, the salary cut people say they would be willing to accept is close to 20%.
