A forest of vivid green trees.

The European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (‘CSRD’) has modernised and strengthened the rules concerning the social, environmental and governance information that companies need to report. Having entered into force in January 2023, it will impact an increasing number of large companies and listed small and medium-sized enterprises in the coming years.

Intertek’s sustainability expertise, combined with our in-depth understanding of our customers’ operations across a broad range of sectors, helps companies prepare for this significant change. Our flexible CSRD solutions provide our customers with tailored support to meet their needs and ensure that they are in the best position to comply with the directive.

We take our customers on the journey to compliance, starting with educating management teams on their company’s requirements, scoping the reporting activity and conducting a double materiality assessment.

We train teams to understand the implications that CSRD has for their business, as well as enabling them to assess
stakeholders, consider mandatory disclosure requirements and prepare their submissions with confidence.

In addition, our subject matter experts help companies assess their corporate sustainability practices and identify any gaps or areas for improvement, providing strategic action plans to ensure alignment with CSRD requirements. This helps to reduce complexity, costs and resources required to meet compliance. We can also support the reporting process, and in some countries, we are among the auditing companies approved to complete third-party validation of CSRD reports.
