Abstract

This chapter demonstrates the critical role of human resources (HR) in fostering organizational sustainability. HR emerges as a key for embedding environmental and social responsibility, from recruiting and training to leadership development and internal communications. The strategic integration of sustainable practices catalyzes positive transformation, the dedication of resources, and the support of innovation within HR. The emphasis on training sustainable changemakers ensures a long-term commitment. This method encourages active employee participation by increasing transparency, collaboration, and accessibility. The combination of indicators, incentives, and recognition offers a strong foundation for continuous growth, establishing firms as worldwide leaders in sustainable business practices.
