Global Reporting Initiative - G3.1 Sustainability Reporting Guidelines

The Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) has released guidelines that it describes as the most comprehensive sustainability reporting guidance now available. The G3.1 Sustainability Reporting Guidelines feature expanded guidance on issues including local community impacts, human rights and gender, as well as environmental, product responsibility, labor, governance and other existing GRI categories. GRI is also launching guidance to help companies determine what to measure and report on. The organization says that this publication, Technical Protocol – Apply the Report Content Principles, will allow companies to produce relevant reports more easily.
