SGS has highlighted that it has launched an all-encompassing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) portfolio inside its new IMPACT NOW for sustainability suite by fusing its world-class testing, inspection, and certification experience with more than 30 years of sustainability innovation.
ESG has never been more crucial. Clients, investors, and the general public demand businesses to lessen their adverse effects on the environment and people while increasing their resilience to climate change. You can meet these expectations, adjust to changes, and benefit from a strong ESG strategy and open disclosure that are in line with your company’s mission.
SGS’s new ESG Assurance pillar offers services to help you whether you want to start off, improve your environmental credentials, deal with social issues, or adhere to the most recent rules and requirements. These services include:
- CSRD and CSDDD solutions
- ESG Training– expertise and guidance from ESG experts
- ESG Health Check – an efficient snapshot of your ESG status
- ESG Gap Analysis – full findings, recommendations and a roadmap for action
- ESG Disclosures and Sustainability Report Assurance (SRA) – accurately demonstrate your ESG accountability
- ESG KPI Verification and Assurance– validate your ESG metrics and targets, and get a third-party statement
- ESG Certification – a cornerstone for committing and demonstrating your ESG credentials
- Social and due diligence auditing
As part of the launch, SGS also presents its CSRD Pre-Assurance service for organizations wishing to identify gaps and weaknesses and strengthen their approach through a confidential “dry run”. This service minimizes the risk of receiving a qualified assurance opinion when undergoing future public assurance.
Géraldine Picaud, CEO of SGS, welcomed the single source to simplify ESG for all said: “We are extremely proud to launch our ESG assurance pillar, as part of our overarching IMPACT Now for sustainability portfolio.
“This unique set of competencies helps any business mitigate risks and optimize success towards achieving its desired targets. From an ESG health check to initiate your journey to extensive verification and report assurance, we have the support you need.”
In its official release, SGS has affirmed that the company frequently hears the concerns of organizations since sustainability is a complicated and quickly changing field. From complexity to clarity, from advice to transparency and meaningful action, its professionals throughout the world are prepared to support our clients on their sustainable journeys.
IMPACT NOW is not merely an idea. SGS is dedicated to tackling the triple planetary crisis of waste and pollution, biodiversity loss, and climate change. By integrating sustainability into all of its operations and services, SGS hopes to improve society and create a world free of pollution and with a beneficial impact on the environment.
