Supply Chain Sustainability Engagement with the Green Masters Program
Companies are under increasing pressure - from consumers, retailers, investors, and regulatory agencies - to act on sustainability and to verify the sustainability of their products, practices, and supply base.
Given the array of issues related to sustainability, navigating the demands can be complex and resource-intensive.
The Green Masters Program® cuts through the complexity and helps you develop or enhance your sustainability and ESG actions, saving you time and money and helping you retain customers, find new customers, and attract and retain employees.
WHY the Green Masters Program?
The Green Masters Program is a cost-effective way to advance and integrate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) actions across your organization. The Green Masters® Certification Mark indicates that your organization has identified and is effectively managing material sustainability issues.
The methods, key performance indicators, and best practices found in the Green Masters tool are designed to be consistent with widely accepted international frameworks, standards, and certification programs. Participation in the program can serve as a stand-alone credential or a stepping stone to other standards, certifications, and indices.
"The Green Masters Program provides a platform for cross-functional teams to meet, exchange ideas and continue to imbed and drive ESG programming throughout your organization" - Sr. Manager of Sustainability & Environmental Compliance, Kohl's Inc.
