Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” This is the definition of sustainable development from UN.
- I am personally passionate about the third UN SDG goal as this relates to the soft values of sustainability performance. There is no question that people have the biggest impact when it comes to upholding quality standards. In terms of health measurement, it is important to assess the well-being of the company, co-workers and society at large. My goal is to engage our employees, increase well-being and create the best conditions for each person to deal with everyday tasks, regardless of age. In other words, to do the right things – at the right time.
