A firm’s environmental record is another measure of their corporate responsibility. Environmental issues extend far beyond the workplace and many have a significant impact on the larger community. In their organizing campaign at hog giant Smithfield, the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) identified massive environmental problems which it used to build a larger community campaign.
Publicly traded firms must disclose any significant environmental issues on their Annual Return available from Companies House WebCHeck and from the company website.
Search the Environment Agency website for significant environmental violations.
Remember to conduct a U.K. News Search, as serious environmental issues are newsworthy as well as consulting with civil society groups.
