Why did your company sign the Climate Action Pledge?
We’re honoured to join the many businesses that are advocating for a clean, zero-carbon economy.
Payworks has long acknowledged the crucial role of the private sector in supporting the urgent preservation of our shared environment. We signed the Climate Action Pledge because we believe that it’s our responsibility to advocate for favourable climate action and to encourage other Canadian businesses to do the same.
Why is it important for business owners to speak up and show leadership on climate change?
It’s important for the business community to come together to create action and to promote the economic benefits of making environmentally-friendly choices. We can amplify our voices and our collective message when we work together.
What’s a simple change you’ve made for the environment that other businesses could do?
Our Green Perspective guides us in building and maintaining environmentally-friendly practices within our everyday office activities. We’ve shared some of the ways we’re reducing our environmental footprint and ideas for other employers to begin adopting green business practices in an article on our blog.
