Outline
1. Challenges in Woolworths' CSR Plan
•
Workforce diversity: Managing a large global workforce with varying cultural and societal
preferences makes it difficult to design a one-size-fits-all CSR plan.
•
Subsidiary integration: Woolworths’ many subsidiaries operate in different markets with unique
CSR concerns.
•
Stakeholder engagement: Different stakeholders (employees, suppliers, customers) have varied
expectations that Woolworths must address.
•
Supply chain management: Ensuring that suppliers uphold Woolworths’ CSR policies,
particularly in different countries, presents a challenge.
2. Woolworths’ Emissions Reduction Efforts
•
10% Emission Reduction: Woolworths has committed to reducing emissions by 10%, but this
may not be enough to address the global climate crisis.
•
Global Climate Crisis: IPCC guidelines recommend a 45% reduction by 2030 to prevent severe
environmental damage.
•
Business Impact: Woolworths’ environmental actions can influence consumer behavior and
regulatory trends. A higher reduction target could improve its market leadership in sustainability.
3. Supplier Relationships and Fairness
•
Sustainability and Fairness: Woolworths’ strategy focuses on building equitable, long-term
relationships with suppliers, fostering innovation and cooperation.
•
Shared Value: Fairness in supplier relations promotes sustainability and strengthens
Woolworths’ business, aligning social and economic benefits with company goals.
•
Trust and Innovation: Woolworths ensures that sustainable practices are adopted by suppliers
through trusted partnerships, benefiting both the company and its suppliers.
