The ESG report is an important tool for developing and demonstrating the company’s work with social responsibility.
In the future, most companies must report on their ESG efforts. For large companies affected by the EU’s CSRD legislation, it is mostly about compliance, because CSRD requires auditor approval. However, all companies will have to engage with ESG-reporting. 3 key reasons are:
- Delivery of data as part of the value chain
In the future, many companies will have to provide data to support their larger customers’ CSRD reporting. - Opportunity and risk management
In line with the spread of ESG reporting, there will be an increasing focus on social responsibility from customers, NGOs, investors, and banks. - Branding and marketing
The ESG-report contributes to developing corporate identity, creating sales, as well as recruitment and retention of employees.
