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.

Benefits of ESG Reporting

For all companies, there are benefits to ESG reporting:

  • 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.

We can help map your ESG readiness and which stakeholders should be involved in the work. We will safely guide you through the entire double materiality assessment, which may also include a strategic dialogue about objectives and action plans.

We advise on data sources and help you structure the data collection. And of course we can also write and design the ESG report and supplement it with advice on how to create engaging communication of the report.

 

The process

The process can be completed in approx. 10 weeks, on the condition that data is available.

  1. Launch
    In the start-up phase, we assess your ESG readiness and help you map and screen your stakeholders.
  2. Double materiality assessment
    In the double materiality assessment, you must define your ESG themes based on input from the value chain and assess the risks and opportunities for the themes’ impacts.
  3. GAP analysis
    The GAP analysis helps identify data requirements that are not already reported on in the company and creates a common understanding of what is needed to achieve the goals.
  4. Data collection
    We help with both structuring and defining the data collection. To the extent you need it, we can also help with the data collection itself.
  5. ESG report
    We write and set up the report in accordance with the requirements in the ESRS and ensure that the communication supports your strategy.
  6. Communication proposal
    We make suggestions for communication efforts about your ESG work.
