Our ESG Assessment tool: among the first in Italy certified and validated by GRI

One year after the development of our online platform dedicated to ESG Assessment for the real assessment of the level of sustainability oversight, today GRI recognizes and certifies our work, among the first in Italy.

From promotion to action: our contribution to a sustainable future

We have chosen to guide companies toward sustainable transition, helping them improve their environmental as well as social and governance performance with customized strategies and targeted interventions.

To make our intervention increasingly effective, we have supported them in understanding ESG issues, concepts and criteria that are new to some and have become fundamental for measuring and communicating their impacts.
We have done this using all the means at our disposal, through events and trainings, moments of discussion with experts in the field and also through the definition of ad hoc tools, for measuring, reporting and communicating their ESG impacts.
The Assessment ESG tool is one of these.

ESG assessment: the features and benefits of our tool

Our ESG Assessment is a measurement tool that allows organizations to obtain an assessment about sustainability performance in the three areas of sustainable development: environmental, social and governance.

The tool interrogates the organization by means of a questionnaire consisting of questions differentiated according to the sector they belong to, each of which is accompanied by a brief theoretical explanation that makes it easy to understand the topic addressed.

All responses provided become a useful survey element in determining the organization’s ESG score and the drafting of the report.
The latter consists of the final document returned by the platform, which highlights any existing gaps, ESG risks and provides both an initial materiality analysis and details of possible improvement actions.

What makes our tool different from others on the market?

Among the first in Italy validated and certified by GRI;
It includes the study of as many as 60 sub-sectors;
It returns a consistent and accurate analysis;
Includes identification of major material issues;
It allows you to identify your status or level of sustainability presidium: high impact, full immersion or limitless.

GRI: the body and international standards

The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) is a nonprofit body of international significance.
Founded in Boston in 1997 as a division of CERES (Coalition for Environmentally Responsible Economies), it has been an independent body based in Amsterdam since 2001 and is an authoritative body for identifying sustainability reporting standards.

Its mission is to help organizations be transparent and take responsibility for their impacts for sustainable change.

To center its goals, the GRI collaborates with policymakers, labor organizations, civil society and many others; expands its network with offices located in multiple parts of the world (the United States, Colombia, Singapore, Africa, Brazil, etc.); and implements and makes available to organizations useful guidelines for measuring and reporting their environmental, social and economic impacts.
Following continuous updates, the guidelines have been replaced by a framework of reference standards, the GRI standards, used by 78 percent of the world’s largest companies based on turnover (KPMG Survey of Sustainability Reporting 2022).

A predominant concept attented to by GRI is materiality, because it becomes essential to understand the significance of one’s actual and potential, short- and long-term, positive and negative impacts on the environment, society and the global economy.
Only in this way can their significance be assessed and action taken with ameliorative or mitigative measures.

Reporting sustainability: our responses to European and market demands

In order to achieve the European targets for reducing CO2 emissions to 2030, for carbon neutrality to 2050, and to act towards the UN-defined Sustainable Development Goals, all organizations are called upon to contribute, and the best way to do this is to make use of experienced partners and certified tools.

Our Group’s response translates into a twofold commitment: as a company and as a promoter of sustainable business models, characterized by effective tools and methods, so that the analysis of its own sustainability performance combined with actions to reduce/mitigate its impacts are recognized by stakeholders and shareholders as virtuous actions and not window dressing.
