Omobolanle Victor-Laniyan, head of group sustainability at Access Holdings, said companies must be committed to zero emissions and must ensure continuous improvement and culture transformation.She advised businesses to educate their workers on corporate sustainability, adding that intentional steps must be taken to recruit a sustainability team to achieve companies’ set goals.
“Business owners should invest in sustainability teams, that is what we did at Access and we hear the testimonies all the time.“Sustainable practices do a company more favour. In this current world, investors are now conscious of the stance of companies toward sustainability in terms of environment and the business itself.”
