“…The impact of the social environment in which individuals are located is important for its development and survival. Some different and similar points of view have been presented by Sulich (2017;, Sulich and Zema (2018), Prus and Marszewska (2009), Prus and Wawrzyniak (2011), Prus and Grabowski (2016). Therefore, it is necessary to ensure the right position of older people in society.…”

Purpose: The paper aims at analysing the effects of the introduction of the "Moje Boisko-Orlik 2012" program and its impact on the social and intergenerational integration of Polish residents. Design/Methodology/Approach: The implementation of "Moje Boisko-Orlik 2012" program was an opportunity to increase the level of social and intergenerational integration. The paper presents the main assumptions of the program, social and intergenerational integration defined through the prism of the participation of communities and different age groups in sporting activity. In addition, for the years 2009-2014, an analysis of the number of beneficiaries of "Orliki" and indicators of their use in the cross-section of voivodships were conducted. Findings: Intergenerational relations are constantly changing, and the aging of society have a major impact on them. Intergenerational integration occurs, e.g. in places such as "Orliki". The hypothesis on the positive impact of the program on the social and intergenerational integration of the population was verified on the basis of available data on the sporting activity of the population and the number of sports facilities created. Practical Implications: The authors' observations point to address the subject of sporting activity of older people in a broader context. Sporting activity is an excellent platform for communication between generations. It should be used as often as possible for the benefit of the society. Originality/Value: The value added of this paper is to draw attention to the role of physical activity in shaping intergenerational relations and social integration. In addition, it seems interesting to use conditional formatting as a method of data analysis.

“…In 2008, the OECD launched the Green Growth and Eco-innovation Project to improve the understanding how innovation can lead to new technological and system solutions in the face of global challenges and to provide the industry with relevant means to improve its contribution to green growth and sustainable development. In its publications, the OECD clearly indicates the key role of eco-innovation in green growth, which contributes to decoupling economic growth from the consumption of natural capital and to creating new jobs (Rutkowska-Podołowska et al, 2016;Michalski et al, 2017;Sulich and Rutkowska-Podołowska, 2017;Sulich and Zema, 2018).…”

Purpose: In the recent decade, the so-called green growth (GG) concept has made a significant contribution to many-years' debate on sustainable development (SD). One of its key pillars is eco-innovation (EI), however little information is available on whether and to what extent eco-innovation can be actually perceived as a significant factor for implementing green growth. For this reason, the aim of this paper is to clarify and synthesise findings at the intersection of these two fields: eco-innovation and the green growth processes. Design/Methodology/Approach: The paper provides a special insight into the relationship between EI and GG incorporating the spatial dimension into analysis. The empirical part is based on the sample of 21 European countries. Findings: The rests of spatial panel models show that there exist positive effects of investing in eco-innovations on green growth. However, these results involve strong nonlinearities and threshold effects. The obtained results shed a new light on the uncovering relevant aspects and complexities of eco-innovations and green growth. Practical Implications: These results suggest that the policy-makers should mainly focus on stimulating the companies to introduce eco-innovations aiming at a reduction of material input and energy per unit output as well as an improvement of eco-management practices. Government incentives for green technology and organizational solutions may include a combination of subsidies and tax incentives. Originality/Value: This study is the first one which includes different measures of ecoinnovations and relates them to the green growth process. These measures allow us portray the countries' eco-innovation efforts from input, process, and output perspectives.

“…This dynamic concept is based on the fact that each new product, service or technology might evolve in a more efficient replacement in terms of energy and material consumption, emission and other particle pollution emissions. Therefore, it is relatively complicated to define with clear boundaries what can be considered as a green sector, an eco-industry or green jobs (Sulich & Zema, 2018).…”

“…The definition of green jobs should be objective and measurable; the latter of these requirements being particularly problematic for researchers and statistical authorities around the world. Moreover, the literature does not provide a clear definition of green jobs Sulich & Zema, 2018). It is possible to identify categories of green job companies and to evaluate their external employer branding actions as a sustainable organization, based on classification schemes in the Statistical Classification of Economic Activities in the European Community (NACE) (see Table 2).…”

As part of the initial diagnosis, out of 12 companies, three were selected, which were analysed using the case study method, with particular emphasis on the analysis of the content transferred via external branding online channels (European Commision, 2008;Sulich & Zema, 2018).…”

Purpose – the purpose of the article is to examine whether and to what extent selected Polish companies implement so-called “green employer branding” in communication with their external stakeholders. Research methodology – the article consists of the theoretical part, which uses the critical analysis of the scientific literature on both green or sustainable organizations and external employer branding; and the practical part, which uses the case study method and content analysis of companies' websites, job advertisements, and social media. Findings – the main results of the conducted research concern the scope, tools, and methods of creating a green employer brand of Polish enterprises. The conducted case study and content analysis showed that Polish enterprises consciously manage their employer brand, emphasizing the ecological aspects of their business activities. The obtained results complement knowledge in the area of management sciences with detailed conclusions regarding the green employer branding. Research limitations – the conducted analysis is a preliminary examination. Its limitations are primarily related to the methods used for qualitative research, as well as a limited research sample. In the future, such limitations might be overcome by using quantitative research methods and the extension of the research sample. Practical implications – the results of the research constitute a set of good practices in the field of green employer branding. The formulated model can help formulate the strategy of external employer branding. Originality/Value – presented research is very first attempt to describe employer branding actions in the aspect of green management in Poland
