Abstract

This study considers environmental managers' views on environmental work. The paper initiates a general and critical discussion of the role and situation of the environmental manager who, as can be argued, has to consider demands from three directions i.e. internal demands, external demands and nature's demands. This triangular focus constitutes the frame of reference of this qualitative, descriptive study. It is suggested that environmental managers must be understood as managers in a business context. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.
