Assurance of sustainability reporting cover
Sustainability Report Assurance
Bureau Veritas supports organisations with independent sustainability report assurance to ensure they meet increased expectations.
DEMONSTRATE YOUR ACCOUNTABILITY with sustainability report assurance
Greater scrutiny of corporate governance and increased demand for transparency now means that corporate responsibility and sustainable development issues have gained a firm place on the agenda of boards and senior management worldwide.
Evolving legislation such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and voluntary standards are continually introduced to ensure companies are accountable for their impact on the environment and society at large.
Openly communicating this accountability to stakeholders through sustainability reporting can build trust and support, but only if the stakeholders are confident that the shared information is a true reflection of the company’s social, environmental and ethical performance.
