Only 14 per cent of professionals in the UK think their employer is doing enough to help combat climate change.

Research from recruitment company Robert Walters has found that only 48 per cent of the companies surveyed have clear, business-wide sustainability goals, and efforts still seem to be falling short.

Chris Eldridge, CEO of Robert Walters UK commented: “All members of the business community have an obligation to help reverse the dial on climate change – in 2022, UK businesses contributed almost 19 per cent of all carbon emissions in the country. So understandably there is a mounting responsibility on companies to look at reducing their footprint.”

In fact, only 19 per cent of respondents to the Robert Walters poll believe their workplace is sustainable – whilst the majority of over two-fifths state their workplace is only marginally and a further 39 per cent don’t think their workplace is at all sustainable.
