About the data
Methodology
In this question you are being asked to identify whether the company publishes a strategic plan towards progressively improving their human rights impacts. Start by looking for a strategic plan published by the company, which could be a roadmap, vision, commitments, targets or goals.
Where to look for this information:
- Corporate Social Responsibility report
- Company documents
- Company policies
- Company websites
- Company code of conduct
- Parent company documents (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company policies (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company websites (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
- Parent company code of conduct (only if the parent company is linked to from the brands website)
Good keywords for your searches include:
- Goals
- Targets
- Commitments
- Strategy
- Strategic plan
- Roadmap
- Vision
Things to watch out for:
- Must cover dates in the future
- If the brand has a 5 year strategy and they are at the end of that 5 years and reporting on progress then that is still acceptable.
