When to use it.
ESG Report is a 16-page A4 annual sustainability report for manufacturers and other businesses reporting under the GRI Standards. It opens with a chief executive's letter, the year in eight figures, the business and its value chain, and a double materiality matrix with the strategy built on it. Then come Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions with a costed transition plan, fibre, waste and water, health and safety, people, suppliers and communities, and board oversight and ethics. It closes with every target against its baseline, the full greenhouse gas inventory with its methodology, and a GRI content index whose page numbers match the report.
