Research warns of hidden talent management costs of ESG U-turns
Rowing back on environmental, social and governance commitments risks a reputational backlash by workers.
Organisations are being warned about the negative workforce impact of ESG U-turns, after a new study revealed that environmental, social and governance issues are more important to employees than ever.
Recruitment firm Robert Half has warned that employers risk creating a disconnect with talent by rowing back on their ESG promises, according to the latest Jobs Confidence Index (JCI) produced by Robert Half in partnership with the Centre for Economics and Business Research (Cebr).
