Wipro believes that being an integral part of society, corporate organizations must play an active role in furthering the cause of sustainability. We strongly endorse the view that corporations should transcend the limited worldview of seeing themselves as economic entities and must play an active role in society. Our legacy of values and good governance practices that go back to the inception of the company help us in this regard. We view Sustainability Reporting as an important catalyst in the organizational development process of seeding and reinforcing sustainability into every aspect of the organization. Our Sustainability Report is predicated on the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) framework, one of the most widely accepted frameworks for sustainability reporting. Reporting on an organization’s sustainability performance is a powerful indicator of an organization’s culture of transparency and its sensitivity to larger societal and ecological issues.

Wipro is driving a self transformation to create an ecologically sustainable organization and business. As Wipro moves forward on this path, it would continuously try to influence all its stakeholders and communities, to move towards ecological sustainability.

Why is Wipro doing this?
It is a fact that the path to economic progress is ecologically unsustainable. Each one of us is a part of this.
The impact and effect of this could range from serious disruption to society and economy as we know it, to global apocalypse and unprecedented global strife. It is going to be a very serious impact “how serious, is a question of degree and time”.
If every one of us – organizations and individuals i.e. the global society transform to ecologically sustainable progress, we have the best chance of shaping a secure and happy future.
So, Wipro is driving this because:
- 1. It’s the right thing to do. We must act responsibly to build a secure and happy future for humanity not just act for an economically successful present. Each one of us must do it.
- 2. Large organizations must take the lead. Because they can influence others, because they can innovate and act on solutions and because they are the dominant architects and actors of the current socio-economic structure, which must go through a deep and fundamental transformation towards ecological sustainability.
- 3. It will soon become a basic requirement. Customers will demand it; employees will seek for it and governments will mandate it; so its better to be early and prepared than be caught lagging.
- 4. It presents opportunities for profitable business. Enormous business opportunities are opening up in building businesses around ecological sustainability, and around weaving ecological sustainability in current businesses.
