REPORT ASSURANCE

Assurance of Sustainability Report

Transparent reporting on sustainability issues, including social and environmental impacts, is critical to safeguarding your company’s reputation. Bureau Veritas’ independent report assurance helps companies communicate their ethical business practices and establish their environmental credentials.

Today’s businesses face increased scrutiny of their business practices from all parties, including governments, external and internal stakeholders, investors, consumers and clients. Companies are expected to demonstrate complete transparency and communicate their sustainability impacts to both public and private entities.   

As an independent third party, Bureau Veritas helps companies prove that information shared about their sustainability performance is accurate and bias-free. Beyond verifying data, Bureau Veritas report assurance allows companies to demonstrate best practice in non-financial reporting (alternatively referred to as sustainability, CSR, CR and ESG).
