CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING DIRECTIVE (CSRD)

Verification, assurance and compliance services to support the transparency of your sustainability measures.

SUSTAINABILITY REPORTING

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is the new EU legislation that requires all large companies to publish regular reports on their environmental and social impact activities. It helps investors, consumers, policymakers and other stakeholders evaluate non-financial performance whilst encouraging a more responsible approach to business.

Crucially, it ensures that sustainability reporting is front of mind for large and medium-sized companies. And for the first time, the CSRD defines a common reporting framework for non-financial data. CSRD applies to all EU businesses, including qualifying EU subsidiaries of non-EU companies, that meet at least two of the following three criteria:

  • €40m net revenue

  • €20m balance sheet 

  • More than 250 employees

Most companies above this size based in the EU and EU subsidiaries of foreign companies will fall within the scope of the CSRD.

UNDERSTANDING THE CSRD

The CSRD reporting standards will help companies better measure and manage their exposure to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) related risks and become better corporate citizens by measuring, disclosing, and managing the sustainability impacts they create. It covers:

  • Environmental – for example climate change, pollution, water and marine resources, biodiversity and ecosystems, and circular economy.

  • Social – including diversity and inclusion, human rights, working conditions, health and safety, employee relations, pay gaps, related rights, workers in the value chain, affected communities, consumers and end-users.

  • Governance - such as policies, risk management and internal controls, ownership and structural transparency, independence and oversight, responsible business practices, ethics, anti-corruption and executive pay fairness.
