Building Business Responsibly

Today’s heightened interest in the proper role of businesses in society has been promoted by increased sensitivity to environmental and ethical issues. Issues such as environmental damage, improper treatment of workers, and faulty production leading to customer inconvenience or danger, are regularly highlighted in the media.

The term ‘Corporate Social Responsibility’ (CSR) is an expression used to describe a company’s obligation to the needs of all of the stakeholders in its business operations. This principle is closely linked with the concept that businesses are sustainable.

The term sustainability recognises that it is necessary to take into account not only the financial/economic dimension in decision-making, but also the social and environmental consequences of sustainable development.

Two of Midwest Rural's Advisers have undergone specialist training in this increasingly important field and are accredited to deliver advice and support to clients whishing to increase their ‘green credentials’
