Sustainability and ESG Reporting

Organisatieontwikkeling

We also offer this training in Dutch.

Sustainability and ESG are terms that are indispensable today. Every organization encounters them, and by 2024/2025, all large enterprises will be required to report on their sustainability strategy and performance. Sustainable development involves reducing negative impacts on people, the environment, and the economy of the organization and its value chain. Of course, it also involves increasing positive impact and creating systemic change.

How do you determine which themes your organization should address and what and how you should report on them? This question is central to this training.

Reporting is not only becoming mandatory but also presents an opportunity. Sustainability reporting enables organizations to consider their impact on a wide range of sustainability issues. This makes the company more transparent about the risks and opportunities it faces. Reporting on sustainability allows organizations to manage and improve both impacts and their risks and opportunities related to sustainability issues.

An external report that transparently shows how the organization achieves this contributes to a better reputation, more satisfied employees, and can even provide a competitive advantage. More and more stakeholders are demanding this, and more and more companies are starting to report on sustainability because they see the benefits. Or because investors, banks, or legislation demand it.

For whom

Controllers, accountants, accountants in business, communication officers, internal auditors, reporting specialists, strategy and sustainability coordinators.

Content

Various standards are available for reporting on sustainability. During this training, we will focus on different standards such as the GRI Standard, the most widely used guideline worldwide. In this introduction, we demonstrate how to effectively report on sustainability information such as safety, human rights issues in the chain, employee development, CO2, or waste reduction. This helps you determine which topics are most important for your organization, how to manage them, and how to effectively communicate them to stakeholders. We will discuss various trends and developments, different standards that can be used, and provide a basic approach for a sustainability report.
