Abstract	In the intricate dance of modern business, the Human Resources (HR) department has stepped into the spotlight, taking on a pivotal role in steering Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives. This paper delves into the transformative journey of HR from an administrative function to strategic ESG champion. Through a mixed-methods approach, employing both questionnaires and personal interviews, we engaged with 33 corporate employees to gauge the current ESG landscape. Our findings reveal a robust awareness of ESG among employees (63.6%), with over half of the companies actively involved in ESG initiatives (54.5%). Yet, a gap persists in the full integration of ESG into corporate culture, evidenced by a significant portion of companies not involved (33.3%) and employees exhibiting varied degrees of flexibility towards ESG initiatives.
