What is EcoVadis?
EcoVadis is a global sustainability ratings provider that evaluates companies’ role in sustainability based on their performance in four key areas: environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement.
Ultimately, EcoVadis’ comprehensive assessments help businesses identify areas for improvement, benchmarking their efforts against industry standards, and ensuring reliable ratings.

What does the EcoVadis Assessment Include?
EcoVadis ratings consider each company’s industry, size, and geographic location, ensuring a tailored and accurate evaluation.
The methodology is rooted in internationally recognised sustainability standards such as the Global Reporting Initiative, the United Nations Global Compact, and ISO 26000. EcoVadis assessment evaluates companies across four main themes:

Labour & Human Rights: Assesses how well a company respects and promotes human rights and fair labour practices.
Ethics: Considers a company’s commitment to ethical business practices and anti-corruption measures.
