Assess Your Firm's Compliance with and Governance of Social Sustainability

Compliance with social sustainability rules, such as the EU's Work–Life Balance Directive, anti-discrimination laws, reporting standards, and internal accountability, is essential for long-term resilience and reputation. This brief self-assessment helps your firm evaluate how well you are meeting these legal and voluntary standards.

How the Assessment Works

Rate each statement from 1 (not true) to 10 (fully true, always practiced). There are 10 questions in this brief assessment that add to the total score of 100 points. After completing this assessment, you will see your firm's overall score and find out which level of compliance and governance of social sustainability your firm currently demonstrates and how your firm can further enhance compliance concerning social sustainability.
