Hungarian companies more and more ‘future conscious’

Fully four-fifths of Hungary’s companies employ sustainability experts and over half of the respondents in a recent survey by Siemens Hungary said they had a sustainability system or policy, according to the report published on Thursday.

Activities aimed at sustainability focus primarily on waste management (95 percent), energy efficiency (85 percent) and water management (78 percent).

The survey was conducted among Hungarian companies with annual revenues above HUF 1 billion (EUR 2.6m) and with at least 20 employees.

Two-thirds of respondents said their environmental activities were comparable to their competitors, while 20 percent said they were doing more for sustainability than other companies.
