ABSTRACT
There are additional variables treated as causal antecedents, modifiers, or outcomes of sustainability. Risk management. While not a part of operational definitions of sustainability in the extant literature, the concept of risk and the management of risk was identified as a reoccurring theme in the sustainability literature (e.g. Shrivastava 1995). He stresses that within the context of sustainability, an organization must manage not only short-term financial results, but also risk factors such as harm resulting from its products, environmental waste, and worker and public safety.
