ESG criteria are a set of standards for a company’s operations that stakeholders can use to asses a company's compliance against.
- Environmental criteria consider how a company performs as a steward of nature.
- Social criteria examine how it manages relationships with employees, suppliers, customers, and the communities where it operates.
- Governance deals with a company’s leadership, executive pay, audits, internal controls, and shareholder rights.
Common ways to audit and demonstrate ESG criteria compliance are policy and report claim reviews and adherence to international standards and frameworks such as ISO14001, the Integrated Reporting Framework, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the United Nations Global Compact or SMETA SEDEX.
Using international frameworks and standards gives stakeholders assurance and understanding of a company's standing and risks wherever they are in the world.
