Another Reason to Go Green: Happy Employees

Need some incentive to convince your employer to go green?

Morale.

According to Inc.com‘s article, employees were happier when their companies are perceived to be environmentally friendly. They defined company rankings from Vanno.com‘s “environmental performance” category that measure factors including recycling, clean/renewable energy usage, sustainability, conservation and preservation.

Employers are encouraged to recycle and also update employees of their efforts.

Readers, do you work for a green company (or not)? How does it affect your attitude?
