About the data

This metric was designed by The World Benchmarking Alliance, more information can be found here. Sources and Alignments for each indicator can be found here as well as the scoring guidelines here

The World Benchmarking Alliance's Nature Benchmark measures and ranks the world's most influential companies on their efforts to protect our environment and its biodiversity.

WBA benchmarks integrate a common set of core social indicators into all system transformation methodologies to assess whether companies demonstrate a sufficient commitment to responsible conduct. These indicators are used to assess companies, regardless of the sector in which they operate, based on publicly available information, in order to drive transparency about responsible business conduct. The core social indicators are supplemented by transformation-specific social indicators that are relevant to the sectors being assessed (see also Section C – Social inclusion and community impact).

This metric relates to the Indicator: The company publicly commits to respecting the principles concerning fundamental rights at work in the eight ILO core conventions as set out in the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. It also has a publicly available statement of policy committing it to respect the human rights of workers in its business relationships.

WBA analysed all publicly available group-level disclosure in English on the applicable group website, which was predominantly annual reports and sustainability reports. Draft assessments were then sent to each company inviting them to provide feedback. This feedback could include additional publicly available group disclosure published. These were then reviewed and finalised. Final assessments were then shared with each company before being published online.
