The Australian Centre for Corporate Social Responsibility has decided to practise what it preaches by releasing its first sustainability report.
The Centre, which encourages companies to produce such reports regularly, said it had done so ‘because we thought it was important to walk the talk ourselves’. The online report has been prepared according to the Global Reporting Initiative guidelines and checked by the GRI.
It details how ACCSR is putting corporate sustainability policies into practice within its own organization and features information on ACCSR’s economic, environmental and social performance over the period July 2005 to August 2007.
Among areas highlighted in the document are the Centre’s contribution to the ‘professionalization of CSR’ through public and in-house executive development programmes and its work to help clients improve their social performance.
‘The process of putting the report together caused us to think hard about the purpose and direction of our business,’ said Leeora Black, managing director. ACCSR provides advisory, research and training services in corporate social responsibility to clients in the public, private and government sectors.
