EcoVadis – the benchmark for sustainable business practices
Sustainability is a crucial factor for business success today, and EcoVadis sets global standards in this area. As a leading provider of sustainability ratings, EcoVadis helps companies to make their environmental, social, and ethical performance transparent and to continuously improve it. The EcoVadis rating provides business partners, customers, and investors with reliable information about how responsibly a company operates.
The assessment is based on four key pillars:
Environment
EcoVadis assesses how companies conserve natural resources, use energy efficiently, reduce emissions, and implement sustainable logistics processes. The goal is to actively minimize the company’s environmental impact and promote environmentally friendly strategies.
Labor and Human Rights
Fair working conditions, health and safety in the workplace, as well as equality and diversity are key priorities. EcoVadis also assesses compliance with international labor standards and measures to prevent forced or child labor – for a responsible and respectful corporate culture.
Ethics
Integrity and transparency in business transactions are central elements of the EcoVadis assessment. Companies are examined with regard to anti-corruption measures, responsible business practices, and compliance. This ensures that ethical standards are not only met but actively practiced.
Sustainable Procurement
Sustainability doesn’t end at the factory gate. EcoVadis examines how companies take responsibility along their supply chains – from selecting sustainable partners and complying with social and environmental standards to minimizing risks.
EcoVadis enables companies to make their sustainability strategy measurable, identify potential for improvement, and visibly demonstrate their commitment to a responsible, future-oriented economy.
