The findings of the Westminster Sustainable Business Forum Leaner & Greener II research inquiry were launched on November 7th by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, The Rt Hon Eric Pickles MP. The report builds upon the first Leaner & Greener report, showing how financial benefits worth potentially £8 billion could be generated by improving workforce productivity. This can be achieved through improving workplace conditions and implementing more flexible ways of working, by reinvesting money saved in rationalising the property portfolio and improving the performance of the reatined estate.
