Kyocera Document Solutions Inc. announced its sponsorship of “Transitioning to Sustainability: employee perspectives on workplace practices,” a new report by Economist Impact.
This comprehensive study explores how employees in five global financial hubs perceive workplace sustainability, highlighting areas such as talent acquisition, daily operations like energy efficiency and waste reduction, and performance accountability in driving a sustainable future.
Kyocera supported Economist Impact’s report that sheds light on the challenges and opportunities businesses face when trying to embed sustainability into their operations and culture. The report surveyed 630 professionals across London, New York, Singapore, Sydney, and Tokyo, from junior employees to senior executives, delivering actionable insights on sustainability’s evolving role in corporate strategy around the globe.
“At Kyocera, sustainability is integral to our mission to make workplaces smarter and greener,” said Keisuke Koyama, Executive Officer and Senior General Manager, Corporate Marketing Division at Kyocera Document Solutions Inc. “For more than 30 years, we have been leading the field in this area through our ECOSYS long-life technology, driving the sustainable innovation of MFPs and printers to maximize productivity and minimize waste. This independent research conducted by Economist Impact aligns with our values and underscores the importance of engaging employees at all levels to drive meaningful change.”
The report reveals key findings, including:
- A growing recognition of sustainability’s importance in attracting and retaining talent.
- Employee-group differences see younger professionals feel a greater sense of urgency for social responsibility and driving initiatives to this end.
- Challenging the idea that sustainability is primarily a concern of young professionals.
“It is a privilege to support Economist Impact to raise awareness of global sustainability efforts and address the challenges ahead,” said Keisuke Koyama. “This report illuminates the critical steps needed to ensure sustainability remains a central focus in the workplace, such as engaging employees at every level. We look forward to leveraging these insights to drive meaningful progress in the years to come.”
This report is the latest step in Kyocera’s focus on sustainability, in the sense of environmental, social and governmental causes. Aligned with their belief in achieving sustainability “for the world around us”, this report helps to identify the changing needs and trends of the workplace.
