| Abstract: | The article presents the 2026 list of the 100 Best Green Workplaces in Oregon, based on employee and employer surveys assessing commitment to sustainability practices such as recycling, waste reduction, energy and water conservation, and support for alternative transportation. The ranked organizations include a diverse mix of companies and nonprofits across sectors like manufacturing, social services, construction, and education, each demonstrating specific environmental initiatives aligned with their missions. Notable examples include Star Body Works, a Southern Oregon autobody repair company integrating recycling and community support; Energy 350, prioritizing energy conservation and efficient HVAC systems; and Mountain Rose Herbs, the first Oregon company to achieve TRUE Zero Waste Platinum certification. The methodology involved anonymous surveys of 437 organizations, with employees rating workplace sustainability satisfaction and employers providing detailed information on policies and practices. This list serves as a resource for understanding how Oregon workplaces incorporate environmental responsibility into their operations and culture. [Extracted from the article] |
