ISO 26000 in Practice - A User Guide

Description

ISO 26000 is a voluntary guidance standard that attempts what no other global standard on social responsibility has: to consolidate in one place the fundamental expectations of organizations regarding their responsibilities to society. Because the standard was developed by a global, multi-stakeholder group, representing more than 90 countries, the standard addresses the wide landscape of social responsibility and provides valuable context for implementation in all types of organizations. This book is structured to help you navigate ISO 26000 and to provide succinct, practical information for implementing its guidance. The book is akin to a GPS that speaks point-to-point guidance as you help your organization set and move toward its social responsibility goals, based on the broader map that ISO 26000 provides.
