Sustainability Reporting Guidelines on Economic, Environmental, and Social Performance

March 18, 2004

These guidelines, offer an insider’s view of the key issues behind the move toward global reporting standards from the Global Reporting Initiative, which has been called the corporate-reporting movement leader. The guidelines also give advice on putting GRI’s reporting guidelines into practice. Review the underlying principles of corporate reporting, and tackle an introduction to commonly applied ratio indicators and disclosure policies. Also read suggestions on report content, including: a CEO statement, an organization profile, a vision statement, and a performance review. An appendix offers discussions on applying indicators and third-party verification.
