Sustainability Reporting and Assurance
Transparency is key. More than ever, stakeholders want to know about a business’s sustainability performance and be assured that it is accurately reporting on its corporate activities to support climate change, the community, resource scarcity and socially responsible investing.
Our experienced team can help you to establish robust reporting frameworks, processes and metrics to meet board, shareholder and other sustainability disclosure requirements as well as align sustainability objectives with your corporate strategy.
Independent assurance of your sustainability and safety data can provide comfort to management and the board and help to maintain stakeholders’ trust and ensure regulatory compliance.
Key questions to consider
Do your customers believe your claim that your product uses less water in production than competitors’ products?
Are your controls just adequate to meet current regulations or are they already anticipating the next level of expectations?
Are you measuring your organisation’s carbon footprint? Have you included post-use emissions in your products’ carbon footprint totals?
Are you confident that your calculations of lifecycle water usage are accurate?
Do you know whether the compliance reports you are receiving from facilities around the world are all based on comparable assessments?
