This book applies environmental, social and governance (ESG) to
issues of sustainable development in healthcare. ESG reporting has
been widely used for some time in the business industry to show the
economic, social and environmental responsibilities of companies
that aim to achieve superior ESG performance for lower risk, more
accountability and transparency. Moreover, public-listed companies
in healthcare have been growing in significant numbers in recent
years. The application or practice of ESG in healthcare has become
a growing trend for these large organisations looking to
demonstrate their strengths in areas of financing, operations,
sustainability and social responsibilities. Such an approach is
essential not only for the long-term development of the companies
but also for services delivered by healthcare practitioners.
Equally, the implications to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3
is relevant to healthcare worldwide with a growing ageing
population, which has led to a great burden of care in many
countries, particularly in the public sector. The potential
development and expansion in private healthcare services,
accelerated by technology advancement, has demanded a new paradigm
in the healthcare industry, particularly in business, service
delivery and policy. The book examines this paradigm through health
in all policies, ESG and SDG 3 objectives, research, training and
practice. It is relevant to graduate students and scholars working
in areas relating to health, business and the SDGs and is also
useful to policymakers and practitioners in healthcare. Â
