Getting the basics right for your report's content index
This service focuses on the implementation of the main GRI requirements for reporting in accordance and with reference, reviewing the content index compliance, accessibility, and consistency. Checks provided are on a limited set of disclosures. It is recommended for experienced reporters familiar with the GRI Standards 2021.
By choosing this service, we help you make sure that:
- Your GRI content index is presented consistently with the GRI Standards

- The reasons for omissions and their explanations are used correctly, as well as any reference to GRI and the Standards
Additionally, we provide recommendations for how to improve your report further - which are not strict requirements of this service.
And if you report with reference, we will help you identify how to improve your content index and transition to reporting in accordance.
