What is the EcoVadis Sustainability Rating?
EcoVadis is a leading platform that provides sustainability ratings and performance improvement tools for global supply chains. It evaluates companies’ sustainability practices and performance based on various criteria across environmental, social, ethical, and supply chain sustainability.
The EcoVadis Sustainability Rating assesses companies based on a detailed methodology and criteria related to environmental impact, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. The evaluation process involves analysing documentation, policies, and data provided by the company, as well as independent verification where applicable.
EcoVadis rates companies on a scale of 1 to 100, with 1 indicating inadequate sustainability performance and 100 representing excellent sustainability practices. These ratings offer insights to organisations, stakeholders, and procurement professionals, aiding them in making informed decisions about their suppliers and encouraging sustainable business practices across supply chains.
Many businesses and corporations use EcoVadis ratings to assess and benchmark the sustainability performance of their suppliers, fostering transparency and improvement in sustainable practices throughout the supply chain.
