ISO 26000 Social Responsibility Certification
WHY SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY:
Enterprises and their stakeholders all across the world are becoming more conscious of the need for and advantages of acting responsibly for others. Social responsibility's objective is to promote sustainable development. Measuring a company's overall effectiveness and ability to carry on operating efficiently now increasingly depends on how well it performs in relation to the society in which it operates and how its influence on the environment.
This partially reflects the increased understanding of the necessity to guarantee sound organizational governance, healthy ecosystems, and social equality. All companies' operations ultimately depend on the state of the global ecosystems. Organizations are more closely monitored by their various stakeholders.
