Our enterprise sustainability management software WeSustain supports multiple key sustainability standards and indicators since day one.
Today, more than 300 businesses and other organizations worldwide use our system as a means of enhancing their CSR performance and preparing reports that conform to such standards as GRI, UNGC and ISO 26000. Continuing our engagement in providing easy and reliable access to all major sustainability related standards we have just introduced a new option: WeSustain now is a Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) verified ERP Partner, which means users can now also choose to align their reporting with SASB’s 80 industry specific standards.
SASB’s industry-specific sustainability accounting standards help companies identify sustainability topics that are likely to constitute material information for investors. Because all disclosure topics in SASB standards are underpinned by evidence of financial impact, SASB standards can help companies identify and manage the sustainability issues that are most likely to impact financial performance. In comparison with other sustainability reporting organizations, SASB has a unique focus on providing investors with material, decision-useful, and comparable information. Together with FASB standards for material financial information, SASB standards for material sustainability information can provide investors with a complete view of corporate performance. SASB standards for SEC filings are complementary to the GRI framework for sustainability reports and the IIRC framework for integrated reports.
The Sustainability Accounting Standards Board™ (SASB)™ is an independent 501(c)3 organization that issues industry-specific standards for use in disclosing material sustainability information in filings to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Michael R. Bloomberg, founder of Bloomberg LP, and Mary Schapiro, former SEC chairman, serve as chair and vice chair of SASB’s Board of Directors, and Dr. Jean Rogers serves as Founder and CEO. More than 2,800 individuals representing $23.4T assets under management and $11T market capital have participated in multi-stakeholder industry working groups informing standards development.
