A brief description of how sustainability is included in new employee orientation:
Sustainability is included in the “New Hire Resources” webpage which is visible to all incoming new hires, but likely viewed by a majority of non-academic staff. Sustainability resources include: 1) Sustainability Tips for New Hires, 2) Sustainability Resources for Faculty, 3) an overview of USC's 2028 Sustainability Framework (Assignment: Earth), 4) USC Single-Use Plastic Beverage Bottle Policy, 5) a Sustainability Toolkit, and 6) contact information for our Sustainability Engagement Specialist.
