• SUSTAINABILITY AUDITS, STRATEGIES AND REPORTS

    After the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) came into force, all large European companies must publish sustainability reports according to common European standards (European Sustainability Reporting Standards, ESRS).

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) involved in exporting goods and services will be integrated into this process through their supply chains and partners. Starting in 2027, they will be required to publish mandatory sustainability reports. Similar to large corporations, SMEs will need to provide detailed annual reports on the sustainability aspects of their business operations.

Developing a quality strategy or report based on sustainability principles is a long process. If your company has not yet measured its carbon footprint, we recommend that you start preparing now.

SUSTAINABILITY AUDIT

Before developing a strategy, report, or communication plan, a sustainability audit is conducted within the organization. This diagnostic tool assesses the business’s sustainability context, focusing on key impacts and critical principles across environmental, governance, and social dimensions. To facilitate the audit, the company must provide the auditor with relevant data sets, including information on resource consumption, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and social and economic indicators.

Value

Climate change remains one of the most important issues on the European regulatory agenda, and new rules and initiatives are coming into force to promote the green transition. In the long run, both large and medium-sized companies and institutions will have to provide detailed annual reports on their environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance in accordance with new technical standards. A sustainability audit helps companies assess their impact on the environment and society and encourages them to take action to reduce impact and increase sustainability.

SUSTAINABILITY REPORT

The CSRD mandates companies to disclose extensive information on their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices, following the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). This includes addressing dual materiality, which considers both how a company impacts and is impacted by climate change.
