Insights from Global Supply Chain Ratings.
"Published for the fourth year running, the Business Sustainability Risk and Performance Index: Insights from Global Supply Chain Ratings, previously entitled Global CSR Risk and Performance Index, offers a comprehensive overview of sustainability performance of businesses from around the world. The study is based on over 65,000 ratings conducted between 2015 and 2019, with the total number of companies evaluated amounting to more than 40,000.
This includes organizations across nine industry divisions, which are groupings of similar business categories based on ISIC codes: Light, Heavy and Advanced Manufacturing, Food and Beverage, Construction, Wholesale, Transport, Information and Communication Technology (ICT), and Finance, Legal and Consulting.
The companies are grouped into two sizes: Small and mediumsized businesses (companies with 26-999 employees) and large organizations (1,000 or more employees).
This rich variety of industries, company sizes and locations provides the widest coverage of evidence-backed business sustainability ratings in the world and brings deep perspective on trends in business sustainability commitments and performance.
The Index is built using EcoVadis sustainability rating scores, which are based on 21 sustainability criteria across four themes: Environment, Labor and Human Rights, Ethics and Sustainable Procurement. Scores are based on a scale of zero to 100."
