A Sustainability Committee by simple definition is a body that is accountable for the sustainability strategy and performance of the business. Not only is it a core part of good governance in any company, its role is also to integrate both business and sustainability priorities so that the company is able to thrive.
By its nature, it cuts across business operations and support functions to orient the organization towards a triple bottom line. Also commonly known as the ‘3Ps’ for people, planet and profit, this practice of taking into account not just business profits but also social and environment aspects of a company is increasingly valued by global companies today.
