Sustainability in the rental industry incorporates economic, social and environmental aspects of sustainability, with priority often given to environmental protection, labour, human rights and diversity, and health and safety.
Sustainability requirements and customer preferences vary from country to country, which means that the industry approach to sustainability is not uniform around the world.
Rental associations may attempt to incentivise companies to act more sustainably, such as through a Sustainability Award, provide tools for companies to raise their standards or educate their members about legal requirements and policy developments.
