“GIF RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION”: THE ESG PASSPORT
“Get It Fair Responsible Organization” is a mark that identifies and distinguishes organizations that care about the planet, people, society, and ethics for future generations.
It enables an organization to communicate accurate, reliable, and credible information on sustainability performance to its stakeholders by:
- an ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) risks rating
- the assurance of sustainability reporting prepared in accordance with international standards (e.g. ESRS-EFRAG, GRI, IFRS).
This mark is not obtained through self-declaration or self-assessment.
The “Get It Fair responsible organization” mark is issued upon completion of a rigorous Due Diligence process carried out by an independent third party accredited against the international standard (ISO/IEC 17029) and the Get It Fair program (assessed as suitable for accreditation purposes against the same standard).
The Get If Fair program adopts the IESBA Code of Ethics, the international standard for independence and ethics recognized by over 130 jurisdictions worldwide: the validation bodies accredited in the Get It Fair program must carry out their activities in accordance with the same standard to which auditors and auditing firms are subject.
Accuracy is achieved by referring to a comprehensive reference model (GIF Framework) that considers all aspects of sustainability (Governance, Social, Health and Safety, Environment and Business Ethics), defines a rigorous metric aimed at confirming the truthfulness of data and the plausibility of assumptions to estimate current or potential risks (forward looking) and allows qualitative and quantitative information to be evaluated in a scoring system that provides a representation of the organization’s level of exposure to ESG risks.
Reliability is ensured through an assessment process defined and implemented in accordance with the requirements specified in the international standard ISO/IEC 17029 which includes a substantial part of the activities carried out at the organization’s premises by a group of assessors with certified skills within the GIF AP Credentialing System program.
Credibility depends on the fact that the mark is issued by an independent third-party body accredited by an accreditation body (Accredia) with respect to the international standard ISO/IEC 17029 and the Get It Fair program.
The Get It Fair programme meets the 10 criteria defined by the IAF (International Accreditation Forum) Position Paper on “Corporate Sustainability Information”.
This program allows organizations to meet the emerging needs of a wide range of stakeholders (banks and investors, consumers and customers, authorities and public bodies, etc.) to receive accurate, reliable, credible and comparable information on the effectiveness of an organization’s approaches and results on all aspects and risks of sustainability.
The programme is promoted by Diligentia ETS , not for profit organization.
