Nowadays, business relationship with social and natural environment is critical and increasingly being used as a measure of overall performance and value. ISO 26000:2010, Guidance on Social Responsibility, provides guidance on how organizations can operate in a socially responsible way while contributing to sustainable development.
Unlike other well-known ISO standards, ISO 26000:2010, is not for certification purposes but only for verification. It helps businesses and organizations translate principles into effective actions and practices relating to social responsibility context of the implementing organizations.
