The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), which publishes the most widely used international framework for sustainability reports, recommends external assurance. According to the GRI, the global trend of sustainability report assurance has increased, with half of published reports already undergoing an external audit - and the trend is rising.
In principle, the external assurance of sustainability reports is suitable for companies of any size and industry. It is particularly relevant for organizations that are in the eye of the public, such as listed companies, public organizations and companies that underlie specific legal requirements.
First, you discuss your organization, your approach to sustainability reporting and the objectives of the assurance engagement. Based on these discussions, you will receive an individual quote tailored to the needs of your company or organization.
The assurance audit consists of two parts: The document review and the audit. The duration of the assurance depends on the scope, the scope of the report, and the selected assurance type and level. During the final meeting, our auditors explain all findings to you, give you feedback, and plan further steps together.
After the assurance process is complete, we prepare an assurance statement that is published with the sustainability report.
