"This paper proposes a new tool for promoting business sustainability— indicators of sustainable production. It discusses the business case for sus-tainable development and introduces the concept of sustainable production as a way to equally address different aspects of production (environmental and occupational, social and economic). Indicators are suggested as a tool for operationalizing this concept and their objectives, scope, and desirable qualities are outlined. The paper concludes with some recommendations for developing indicators of sustainable production. "
