Identify ESG Criteria that Matters
When crafting an ESG strategy, it’s essential to make sure all sources of your company’s designated criteria are met. This can be especially difficult as practices and guidelines constantly evolve. Trying to cover all areas of the criteria effectively in one fell swoop is nearly impossible; instead, focus on core issues that are important to your customers/investors and dedicate significant resources to meeting those needs. Examples of each sector include:
- Environmental: carbon emissions, water and waste management, raw material sourcing, climate change vulnerability
- Social: diversity, equity and inclusion, labor management, data privacy and security, community relations
- Governance: board governance, business ethics, intellectual property protection
