As main results, we can highlight actions of social sustainability of COOPERATIVA Y with its associates, cooperatives and community, as well as investments in projects and practices to reduce waste and encourage recycling. Still, the degree of sustainability of the cooperative is very much linked to the economic dimension, a relatively normal fact in the business environment, considering that survival in the market is its first condition of existence. The relationship between cooperative principles and social sustainability is significant, because these principles are directly linked to the behavior and attitudes of the parties involved.
