Bapcor social and environmental performance
Bapcor’s social and environmental performance has impacted the organization in the
following ways:
They have a good relationship with their employees. Bapcor encourages a good and
healthy relation with their employees because they believe with happy and satisfied employees
then their output is also good. This is true as seen to its success the employees are happy working
there and thus give their all.
They have managed to form trust between the employers and employees. With the good
relationship employees are able to trust their seniors. Trust is very essential because it ensures
transparency and accountability in the organization. Therefore, the company has been able to
succeed due to transparency.(Hauschildt, Gwosc, Netz and Mishra 2017).
Bapcor also involves the community and recognizes them. In areas where its business
operates, they have made an effort to be part of the community by being part of various charities
and sports initiatives. Some examples of this are Young Care, Blue September, The Color Run
and Kids With Cancer. By engaging with the community around Bapcor is able to form a good
relationship with its environ and thus providing suitable working conditions for the employees. A
good working environment, yields better results(Schaltegger and Wagner 2017).
Bapcor has faced some economic conditions that have impacted on them such as:
Health laws. Some residents in the areas that the industries are located have filed
complaints of health hazards caused by the company such as water poisoning. This has caused a
lot of money being spent on lawyers and ensuring our waste is 100% clean.

Political conditions. The political condition in some countries has hindered the company
from expanding to those sides thus the market remains minimal.
Technology. This has had a positive income on the company since they are able to
expand their market through online sales thus reaching people all over the world.
Economic (Hauschildt, Gwosc, Netz and Mishra 2017). This has had a positive impact on
the company because the low-interest rates allow people to have disposable income on luxuries
such as cars and its accessories.
