Susan means now is the time for companies to behave responsibly.
Susan means now is the time for companies to behave responsibly.
now is the time: This is correct. Susan says "it's high time that companies took some responsibility for their practices" meaning that this is their last chance. "It's high time (you saw the doctor)" means you should have seen the doctor a long time ago. Example: It is high time that the question of illegal immigration was resolved.
