THE PROJECT > Objectives/vision
CSRR-QS 2.1 has been drawn up with the objective of promoting confidence in those Groups performing Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility Research.
The standard aims to:
- Improve quality management systems;
- Stimulate transparency;
- Facilitate assurance processes; and
- Form a basis for further verification procedures.
This standard covers the functions of CSRR Groups whose work may include the collection of CSR data and subsequent SRI-activities of researching, analysing, evaluating, rating, ranking, screening, and risks and opportunities assessments, as well as all related products, processes, work procedures and services, and subsequent reporting of results of these activities to customers and other stakeholders.
Although these CSRR activities may have numerous outputs and clients, the CSRR-QS 2.1 focuses mainly on the operational requirements of SRI-related products and services.
Although the standard has its origins in Europe, other international CSRR Groups will be engaged with in order to encourage their participation in, and adoption of, the standard. The intention is to make the standard a fully international one.
Although the standard has its origins in Europe, other international CSRR Groups are interested and engaged to make the standard a fully international one.
