Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and ISO 26000

The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) produces a comprehensive Sustainability Reporting Framework that is widely used around the world to enable greater organizational transparency.

There are over 100 countries communicating the impact of business on critical sustainability issues with GRI.

By using the GRI framework in conjunction with the ISO 26000 guidance, reporters will have a practical set of tools to measure and report on their social responsibility issues and practices.

The linkage document explains the connection from both perspectives.

• Table 1 (from GRI perspective): for every GRI indicator its relationship with the ISO 26000 (C)SR issues and relevant paragraphs.
• Table 2 (from ISO perspective) is new: the relationship between the ISO 26000 paragraphs and GRI indicators and paragraphs.
