Program Sustainability Actions

Assess current ESG activity

Organizations looking to initiate or evolve their ESG and sustainability program should start by assessing the current ESG-related activities at their organization. The initial assessment should include a review of ESG reporting, risk management and initiatives currently being performed by the organization.

Review ESG reporting data

Many organizations are initiating sustainability and ESG-related data reporting, including climate-related data and greenhouse gas emissions. In assessing sustainability and ESG data reporting, organizations should evaluate who provides this data, the frequency of reporting, whether reporting is for regulatory requirements, and whether validation procedures are in place.

Evaluate ESG risk management

ESG-related compliance requires disclosing the organization’s ESG-related risks and impacts and the risk management process, including the evaluation of ESG-related risks, reporting, communication, oversight and governance processes. Organizations should evaluate whether current risk management processes can be leveraged and adapted across the organization to incorporate ESG-related risks.

Document ESG initiatives

Organizations should evaluate what ESG-related activities and initiatives are currently occurring within the organization, whether they have developed or committed to any ESG-related goals and targets, and how they evaluate and measure progress. The content also says organizations should document and inventory the ESG initiatives occurring across the organization.

Track emissions and waste

Many companies are required by laws and regulatory requirements to track and report on their waste management and environmental impacts to air and water. The content says environmental compliance programs already track environmental impact and that companies should expand this data to include utility usage and greenhouse gas emissions.

Reduce hazardous waste

Another approach to getting ahead of growing regulations is through reducing your company’s generation of hazardous waste. One way to go about this is through better chemical management. Implementing modern green chemistry practices is described as a strategic approach to build ESG and reduce hazardous waste by selecting safer chemical products.
