Study on the Sustainable Strategy of H&M

作者： md. saiful islam 上海外国语大学

学位级别：硕士

The assurance of corporate sustainability reporting has long been a controversial *** management and suppliers are routinely accused of violating principles ofsustainability, an important exercise in public accountability. This thesis responds to recent callsfor an analysis of the process by which the violation takes place. Integrating elements of neo-institutional theory and arena concept, the thesis provides a detailed study of the sustainablestrategy of H&M.This paper provides a thorough description of various threats to the sustainabledevelopment of H&M, such as their cotton frond problem, transport problem, employees training,customer dealings, etc. After that, the paper provides an account of H&M’s effort to seek asolution package to these threats, which together is represented as H&M’s sustainability *** the solution efforts are: they have their own sustainable strategy department, in thiswhich H&M tries to improve itself and resolve their sustainability problems;they are doing a lotof social work, like children education investment, employee training, thus making muchpositive contribute to the community in which it operates. This paper also provides informationon the result of H&M’s sustainability strategy, and draws some lessons from the overall case,which may prove meaningful to other similar clothing companies.

The study was conducted to characterize and perform laboratory-scale treatment of municipal drainage wastewater of Khulna, Bangladesh. Wastewater samples were collected from three different points of existing urban drain outlets into the Mayur River around Khulna. Laboratory testing shows the BOD5 and COD concentration of wastewater samples varied from 57 - 226 mg/l and 320 - 435 mg/l, respectively, and the total dissolved solids ranged from 1800 - 2525 mg/l. Therefore, a laboratory-scale treatment technology was developed to treat this wastewater. Treatment technologies adopted were primary sedimentation, followed by aeration, chemical precipitation and filtration. In treated wastewater, BOD5, COD and TDS were found to be in the range of 40 - 115 mg/l, 160 - 256 mg/l and 1356 - 1500 mg/l, respectively. These test results suggest that the performance of laboratory-scale treatment plant was not adequate to fulfil the acceptable limit (ECR’97) for safe disposal into surface water bodies. Due to poor quality of effluents, modification of laboratory-scale treatment plant was made by an activated sludge process followed by granular media filtration. The final BOD5, COD TDS and TSS concentration of effluents was found to be 1.38 - 9.8 mg/l, 32 - 192 mg/l, 590 - 1667 mg/l, and 35 - 95 mg/l respectively, which satisfy ECR’97 standard limits for safe disposal into inland water bodies.
