There are three dimensions of sustainability: economic, social, and environmental
in SSE and in CSR and triple bottom line. In SSE, the objective of economic sustainability cannot
be separated from those of social and environmental sustainability. The objective of the SSE is to
promote people and the economy is an instrument to improve the quality of their lives. It is not
the people who are tools for an economy that has as its priority the profit of a few. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) includes initiatives of companies that - while pursuing profit-making -
decide to explicitly present a series of internal and external instances, providing economic, social
and environmental benefits for all stakeholders; triple bottom line (TBL) is an accounting
framework with three parts: social, environmental (or ecological) and financial. Many
organizations have adopted the TBL framework to evaluate their performance in a broader
perspective to create greater business value. 3P: in SSE we are flipping the priorities of the TPL
from profit-planet-people to people-planet-benefit.
