Notes:
Sense and Sustainability Study based on an online national survey among U.S. adults by Harris Poll for G&S Business Communications, New York City, New York. 19-page PowerPoint presentation.
Online via the publication. 3 pages., Findings of a poll by The Packer indicated that "properly administered social responsibility programs
do exactly that, or at least can be a significant factor in helping accomplish that goal." They can help ensure that workers are treated well according to health and safety standards and compensated fairly. Such programs also provide to the wider company a greater sense of purpose that workers' jobs
contribute to something greater than profits.
