Since several years, the word sustainability has earned relevance within different backgrounds, with its meaning dominantly related to environmental and social issues. In fact, environmental changes and a higher awareness about social issues and poverty moved international institutions and different countries to take strategic care of sustainability. Because of its increasing importance, several definitions have been proposed, in order to define specifically its meaning and to address its main dimensions. This work aims at better understanding the actual state of sustainability practices within industrial companies. To pursue this, an explorative research has been implemented through the use of a questionnaire, responded by 20 companies. Afterwards, all the results have been analyzed and classified in a Reference Sustainability Framework.

Abstract
Since several years, the word sustainability has earned relevance within different backgrounds, with its meaning dominantly related to environmental and social issues. In fact, environmental changes and a higher awareness about social issues and poverty moved international institutions and different countries to take strategic care of sustainability. Because of its increasing importance, several definitions have been proposed, in order to define specifically its meaning and to address its main dimensions. This work aims at better understanding the actual state of sustainability practices within industrial companies. To pursue this, an explorative research has been implemented through the use of a questionnaire, responded by 20 companies. Afterwards, all the results have been analyzed and classified in a Reference Sustainability Framework.Pubblicazioni consigliate
