ARE YOU FISHING WITH BAIT THAT ONLY ATTRACTS HALF THE FISH?
Per Deloitte, 9 out of 10 Under 40 job candidates want to work for a certified sustainable company and will take less money to do so.
Per HP, 46% of job candidates will not work for a company that is not certified sustainable (A Fast Company study says it is 64%).
WHAT DOES THIS TELL US?
Certified sustainable companies, which are less numerous, are able to pursue all the potential candidates; while non-certified sustainable companies, which are more numerous, are fighting over, and paying more for, roughly 50% of the candidates.
WHY DO CANDIDATES LIKE CERTIFIED SUSTAINABLE COMPANIES?
Per Greenbiz, sustainability attracts job seekers because
Sustainability is a source of employee pride
Sustainability implies the company cares about its employees
Sustainability helps job seekers connect company values with their personal values
WILL THEY STAY?
Per Fast Company, nearly 70% of employees said they will stay with a company that has a strong sustainability program. But if their company does not have a strong sustainability program, they will seek a company that is certified sustainable.
