We are proud of our sus­tain­abil­i­ty com­mit­ments, achieve­ments and valu­able par­tic­i­pa­tion with AusLSA.

The 2019 AusLSA Sus­tain­abil­i­ty Update pro­vides an in-depth overview of the col­lab­o­ra­tive and indi­vid­ual efforts of 32 Aus­tralian legal prac­tices. This con­tributes to a more sus­tain­able legal sec­tor through their peo­ple, com­mu­ni­ty, envi­ron­men­tal and gov­er­nance ini­tia­tives. Man­ag­ing and report­ing a full range of sus­tain­abil­i­ty issues is a grow­ing fea­ture of suc­cess­ful Aus­tralian and inter­na­tion­al organ­i­sa­tions and is an increas­ing expec­ta­tion of their key cus­tomers, employ­ees and stake­hold­ers. AusLSA annu­al reports have been pro­duced every year since 2009. These nine reports tell a com­pelling sto­ry about the jour­ney of an increas­ing­ly engaged and com­mit­ted mem­ber­ship.
