Q&A Session: CoP Questionnaire Deep Dive - Questionnaire Structure & Governance Section

Overview

Are you ready to disclose your progress using the new online questionnaire starting in 2023?

The new Communication on Progress online questionnaire is structured in five sections. The first section, Governance, provides a cross-cutting overview of the companies’ sustainability governance structure. The remaining four sections, Human Rights, Labour, Environment, and Anti-Corruption, survey companies about their performance with respect to the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact. Within each section, participating companies will answer questions that address process and policies that demonstrate a company’s commitment to progress, efforts taken to prevent negative social and environmental impact, performance indicators, and remediation and reporting mechanisms to address grievances and reflect on lessons learned.

Hosted by the UN Global Compact Communication on Progress Team, this virtual, interactive Q&A session will help you better understand the new online questionnaire structure, familiarize yourself with the questions in the Governance section and provide answers to any questions you might have.
