Kestävyysraportoinnille

kestävyysraport is a Finnish term that translates to "sustainability report" in English. It refers to a document published by a company or organization detailing its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance and impacts. These reports are designed to provide stakeholders, including investors, customers, employees, and the public, with a transparent overview of how the organization is addressing sustainability issues.

The content of a kestävyysraport typically covers a range of topics. Environmentally, it might include information on carbon emissions, energy consumption, waste management, water usage, and biodiversity. Social aspects often encompass labor practices, human rights, community engagement, product responsibility, and employee well-being. Governance issues relate to corporate ethics, transparency, board diversity, and executive compensation.

The purpose of a kestävyysraport is to demonstrate accountability and to communicate an organization's commitment to sustainable development. It helps in identifying risks and opportunities related to sustainability, as well as in measuring progress towards set goals. Many organizations now choose to align their sustainability reporting with international frameworks such as the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards to ensure comparability and credibility. The increasing demand for transparency from consumers and investors has made sustainability reporting a common practice for many businesses operating in Finland and globally.
