Eco boss | Axe threat for staff bringing single-use plastic to work

The state of our planet has hit many news headlines over the past year, ignited by the release of BBC’s Blue Planet II back in 2017 which showcased the plight of plastic on the environment.

As such, more and more businesses are beginning to align their purpose with meaningful actions that will make a difference in terms of sustainability.

Whether that’s launching training initiatives to teach employees about the importance of sustainability or handing out reusable water bottles, almost eight in ten business leaders believe that having a purpose is a commercial benefit to an organisation, PwC previously revealed.

One employer has taken drastic action in his fight against plastic, after he warned staff that they may face the chop if they bring single-use plastic to work, The Sun reported.
