id=\"What_is_a_sustainability_plan_and_why_is_it_so_important\"><\/span><strong>What is a sustainability plan and why is it so important?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>63% of Spanish workers believe that sustainability policies, such as the one we\u2019re exploring here, are a determining factor. These are the results from a study recently published by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.compromisorse.com\/rse\/2023\/04\/13\/las-politicas-de-sostenibilidad-empresarial-son-determinantes-para-el-63-de-los-trabajadores-espanoles\/\">Compromiso RSE<\/a> (in Spanish), a specialist CSR website. As we can see, ESG criteria (i.e. environmental, social and corporate governance) are growing in importance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Defining_a_sustainability_plan\"><\/span><strong>Defining a sustainability plan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A <strong>sustainability plan<\/strong> is a guide that sets clear, measurable and realistic objectives to improve an organisation&#8217;s sustainability. In addition, it needs to work in harmony with the UN&#8217;s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are aimed to be achieved by 2030. Generally speaking, it should follow the <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/hK62iuqAHR0\">European Union&#8217;s lead<\/a> in reducing the company&#8217;s carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is worth highlighting the fact that the EU stands out from other organisations of its kind in that it implements realistic and specific policies. What\u2019s more, the plan needs to include all workers, directors, clients and investors linked to the business. By ensuring these key components are incorporated, companies all over the world will be able to effect real change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_implementing_a_sustainability_plan\"><\/span><strong>Benefits of implementing a sustainability plan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The European Environment Agency has been urging us to adopt plans to combat this pressing issue since 2015. In fact, it declared that Europe is far from reaching its target of \u201cliving well, within the limits of our planet\u201d. For this reason, it is now more important than ever that we fully understand the advantages of these kinds of guidelines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Improved corporate image<\/strong>. Four out of every five large companies in Spain increased their sustainability investment in 2022, <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/es\/es\/pages\/operations\/articles\/cxo-sustainabity-report-np.html\">according to Deloitte<\/a> (in Spanish). One of the main reasons for this was the need to show a commitment to the planet. The same study revealed that 74% of people are worried by the role that companies are playing.<\/li><li><strong>Reduced operating costs<\/strong>. Sustainable policies have an overwhelmingly positive effect on the value chain in the medium and long term. This is mainly a result of optimising the use of resources and reducing waste. Increasing your company\u2019s energy efficiency is a great way to ensure a promising future.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_step-by-step_guide_to_creating_a_sustainability_plan\"><\/span><strong>A step-by-step guide to creating a sustainability plan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nowadays, every company can choose exactly how to adopt its own <strong>sustainability plan<\/strong>. However, it is worth noting that there are a number of regulations that must be observed, which contain some important aspects. Of these, the most important to consider are state regulations which are then transposed into law in EU member states, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Spanish Law on Cooperation for Sustainable Development and Global Solidarity<\/strong> (2023). This forces companies and institutions to also focus efforts on combating hunger and creating healthy environmental conditions.<\/li><li><strong>Spanish Sustainable Economy Law<\/strong> (2011). This called for businesses to join together in the fight against climate change. It marked an important milestone in this regard.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Perform_a_materiality_analysis\"><\/span><strong>Step 1: Perform a materiality analysis<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, it\u2019s vital that you know <a href=\"https:\/\/aplanet.org\/resources\/how-is-a-materiality-analysis-prepared\/\">how to create a materiality analysis<\/a>. This will help you infinitely when deciding on which actions should take priority and other relevant aspects. You will be able to <strong>optimise the investments your company makes<\/strong> in terms of time, as well as human and financial capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to prepare a materiality analysis, you&#8217;ll need to provide in-depth details of your corporation&#8217;s impact from an environmental, social and economic viewpoint each year. In other words, you\u2019ll describe what your company is doing to bring about real change. Next, you&#8217;ll have to find out which resources are available to you and try to make them more sustainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"hs-cta-embed hs-cta-simple-placeholder hs-cta-embed-127055042944\"\nstyle=\"width:100%; max-width:1090px;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/cta-service-cms2.hubspot.com\/web-interactives\/public\/v1\/track\/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLK2KnIblbQFxNzD00Wv4g%2FL%2B0prRyAhXR%2BiQ8SPL5fUEmaxGzOY4Yf9CdI9OTxdJmF5%2BmnwYm5vvWHZg9rGZim7bOgUvxRRctOA1a1401AKai4%3D&#038;webInteractiveContentId=127055042944&#038;portalId=5618409\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"DoubleMateriality_EN\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/5618409\/interactive-127055042944.png\" \n\nstyle=\"max-width:100%; height: auto;\"\nonerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Identify_sustainability_goals_and_objectives\"><\/span><strong>Step 2: Identify sustainability goals and objectives<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your chosen goals must meet certain requirements so that they can be effective:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Specific and detailed<\/strong>. Do away with vague proposals and make firm commitments that are in line with societal demands. In particular, this refers to issues such as minimising your carbon footprint and cutting down on natural resource wastage.<\/li><li><strong>Measurable<\/strong>. It\u2019s crucial that you assess your progress by using relevant metrics. To do this, establish a series of indicators, as you\u2019ll see in step four. Some of the more fitting ones include the percentage of GHG emissions reduction and carbon footprint offsetting.<\/li><li><strong>Assessment and monitoring<\/strong>. Objectives must be subject to a critical evaluation during the planning stage. Once they have been implemented and you\u2019ve started to work towards them, ask an independent body to come and check that they are actually being met.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Drawing_up_strategies_and_actions_for_your_sustainability_plan\"><\/span><strong>Step 3: Drawing up strategies and actions for your sustainability plan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It goes without saying that any action you decide on must be focused on meeting the goals that you set in the previous step. This is the only way to bring about your desired changes and <strong>minimise obstacles and difficulties<\/strong>. As such, they need to form part of a detailed guide which all members of your team, and even society as a whole should be involved in creating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some strategies have a far-reaching influence that goes way beyond the sector itself. Give priority to these kinds:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Optimising energy efficiency (in line with the guidelines of the Institute for the Diversification and Saving of Energy [IDAE]).<\/li><li>Effectively and intelligently managing waste, whilst preventing the misuse and contamination of natural spaces.<\/li><li>Integrating an eco-friendly policy in the production chain, such as <strong>tourism sustainability plans<\/strong>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Another cornerstone that offers many possibilities is collaboration between companies. In any case, it is worth broadening your scope and also working alongside bodies and NGOs that are dedicated to improving companies\u2019 sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Setting_and_monitoring_key_performance_indicators_KPIs\"><\/span><strong>Step 4: Setting and monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs)<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the most common KPIs that you can include in your company\u2019s <strong>sustainability plan<\/strong> are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Renewable energy penetration<\/strong>. Make full use of the grants offered by public bodies such as IDAE. They tend to be focused on solar energy, whether photovoltaic, thermal or hybrid installations. The latter in particular is starting to show great promise and potential.<\/li><li><strong>Energy efficiency in production<\/strong>. Industrial activity is one of the main causes of GHG emissions. Adopting measures that reduce electricity consumption is of utmost importance. To help achieve this, the most effective KPIs you can use are those that concentrate on company energy consumption.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the key ways in which APLANET can be of service is by helping you set indicators that are sure to contribute to reaching the goals you&#8217;ve set. This is a fully personalised service that is adapted to the needs of your company, and our real-time data management system will make sure you stay on the right track. This ensures that your investment is being used effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Communicating_and_participating_with_stakeholders\"><\/span><strong>Step 5: Communicating and participating with stakeholders<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When adopting an <strong>environmental sustainability plan<\/strong>, it&#8217;s a good idea to identify your different stakeholders. This usually divides your company, the people that comprise it and the different organisations that interact with it into groups. The most effective plans are those that involve all parties affected:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Investors<\/strong>, who are responsible for providing the financial capital required to carry out the company\u2019s <strong>sustainability plan<\/strong>.<\/li><li><strong>Clients<\/strong>, who, as we mentioned earlier, are mostly willing to pay more. What matters to them more than anything else is that they are supporting an eco-friendly solution.<\/li><li><strong>Shareholders<\/strong>, who may belong to other companies or entities focused on CSR. These provide invaluable help when searching for shared goals.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_6_Reviewing_and_continuously_improving_your_sustainability_plan\"><\/span><strong>Step 6: Reviewing and continuously improving your sustainability plan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This final step never really comes to an end, as it just keeps going as a cycle. We recommend establishing a methodology for constantly reviewing, monitoring and developing your plan. Therefore, you\u2019ll need two professionals to take care of this. One of them needs to be part of the company\u2019s senior management, while the other should be an independent specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, and with <strong>representatives for all stakeholders<\/strong>, they will embark on the review process. Following this, they will report back on the progress to those who have invested in the plan. The aim of this is to show exactly how their time and money have been used, as well as the milestones that have already been achieved and those that are still in progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is when you&#8217;ll have to sit down and review each of your KPIs one by one in order to compare the degree to which each of them have been achieved and determine whether or not the company is heading in the right direction. If, on the other hand, it is deemed to be going in the opposite direction, there\u2019s no need to worry: this step will allow you to detect the causes and <strong>further develop your sustainability plan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"hs-cta-embed hs-cta-simple-placeholder hs-cta-embed-127046399871\"\nstyle=\"width:100%; max-width:1090px;\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/cta-service-cms2.hubspot.com\/web-interactives\/public\/v1\/track\/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLKqPcMWIZMerNxT0nfBuyBGOzHXi%2FgRupX%2FosBfkShPH77xz%2FtJDA1ce%2BIKyq9hznj2EQrfPlZIhmNTu313BEl8oGmvxSfrVJ8Fnc44p8DPW7g%3D&#038;webInteractiveContentId=127046399871&#038;portalId=5618409\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"SupplyChain_EN\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/5618409\/interactive-127046399871.png\" \n\nstyle=\"max-width:100%; height: auto;\"\nonerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" \/>\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusions_and_recommendations_for_creating_an_effective_sustainability_plan\"><\/span><strong>Conclusions and recommendations for creating an effective sustainability plan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We are firm believers that this needs to be a three-pronged approach that tackles the economic, environmental and social scope of the company in order to provide a true reflection of its current situation.
