Sustainability is about satisfying our current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same. In business, we often frame sustainability in terms of the triple bottom line - people, planet and profit. A comprehensive sustainability program focuses on improving conditions for employees and communities, advancing environmental stewardship and building the financial strength of the organization. Results translate into increased operating efficiencies, higher quality of service, a more productive workforce, increased revenue, lower operating costs, lower liability for the company and clients and an attractive opportunity for potential investors.

Clean Earth's Sustainability Plan includes four goals with short, mid and long-range targets.  Metrics from the international standard in sustainability reporting, the Global Reporting Initiative, have been carefully chosen to reflect progress towards each goal.  Routine reporting on the progress of Clean Earth’s sustainability goals ensures accountability and fosters efforts of continuous improvement. Clean Earth also issues an annual report detailing the success, challenges and progress in meeting our sustainability goals.
