Abstract

With the adoption of the national pact against waste, France's goal is to halve the phenomenon by 2025. In this article, we present the results of an exploratory study about the existence and influence of personal and social norms on waste behavior in corporate catering. We show the existence of a personal norm against waste and contradictory descriptive and injunctive norms that are expressed either at the level of the group we are eating with or that of the entirety of customers.
