Q

How do business’ benefit through CSR?
Reduced costs.

A

Reduced costs.
reducing or recycling waste can be expensive in the short term because businesses may need to change suppliers or set up recycling facilities, but..
organisations pay for waste to be removed and processed. (It’s not like for residents where the garbage truck picks up your bin and your neighbour’s bin and the council pay for everyone). The less waste an organisation produces the lower their waste costs will be, increasing profits.
