A sustainability report is a report published by a company or organization on the economic, environmental and social impacts caused by its daily activities. A sustainability report also presents the organization’s values and governance model, and demonstrates the link between its strategy and its commitment to a sustainable global economy.
Sustainability reports can help companies measure, understand and communicate their economic, environmental, social and governance performance, and then set goals and manage change more effectively. A sustainability report is the key platform for communicating sustainability performance and impacts, whether positive or negative.
If social and environmental commitment is crucial in your activities, you should start communicating it to your stakeholders through this report, as it is an important sign of transparency and accountability.
