ESG Compensation Planning & Design

ESG Planning to Improve Corporate Performance

Environmental, social, and governance—ESG—is more than a buzzword. It’s a new perspective that drives business practice by prioritizing the health of the company, its team, and the community it impacts. Our ESG compensation consulting services will help your company progress in its ESG journey, through proper incentive practices.

Investors are focused on supporting companies that are considered good corporate citizens. They’re interested in how an organization’s products and services impact the environment, employees, and customers. They also want to be confident in a company’s leaders as skilled operators who follow best practices in alignment with an organization’s vision. 

Studies show ESG-linked compensation is directly correlated to improved corporate performance. In fact, more than two-thirds of companies in the S&P 500 have ESG elements built into their compensation programs. Zayla helps your business develop a compensation strategy that incorporates ESG aligned with your goals—and shows investors you’re up to the challenge of being a positive force in the community.

Environmental Social Governance FAQ

What does ESG mean for employees?

The health, safety, and satisfaction of employees are major parts of the S—social—in ESG. And when employees are given goals toward something important, such as protecting the environment, they feel a greater sense of purpose. This leads to the perspective that they’re part of a larger whole, which drives engagement and innovation.
