We followed existing sustainability assessment questionnaire (Rebeco Sam) and guidelines to frame questions and constructs related toSustainability Performance. Under social dimension ofSustainability Performance we considered factors like work force diversity indicated by percentage of female workers, percentage of workers from minority community, parity of remuneration between male and female employee, organizational health and safety like provision of health insurance coverage, protection against accidents, adherence to the workplace health and safety norms, work environment conducive to perform well with sufficient ventilation, light and clean and hygienic sanitary system. Under the Environment dimension of Sustainability Performance we considered factors like eco-friendly environment within the factory premise, monitoring and control of the emission of Green House Gases, waste management practices like treatment of water or other effluents before disposal.
High value of factor loading and Cronbach Alpha (> 0.8) establishes the validity of the above construct (Ref Table 1)
