This course covers GRI's Environmental performance indicators that assess an organization's impacts on living and non-living natural systems, including ecosystems, land, air, and water. Environmental Indicators cover performance related to inputs (e.g., material, energy, water), outputs (e.g., emissions, effluents, waste), biodiversity, environmental compliance and the environmental impacts of products and services.

Among the human rights issues included are nondiscrimination, gender equality, freedom of association, collective bargaining, child labor, forced and compulsory labor, and indigenous rights. GRI's Society performance indicators, designed to assess the impacts organizations have on the local communities and other social institutions. The Society issues include corruption, public policy, anti-competitive behavior and compliance. Within GRI's Product Responsibility Performance Indicators are aspects of products and services that directly affect customers such as healthy local community engagement, impact and safety, and development programs.
Economic, Labor Practices & Decent Work Disclosures
The economic dimension of sustainability concerns the organization's impacts on the economic conditions of its stakeholders and on economic systems at local, national, and global levels. The Economic Indicators illustrate flow of capital among different stakeholders and main economic impacts. Labor Practices & Decent Work performance indicators include employment, labor/management relations, occupational health and safety, training and education, diversity and equal opportunity, and equal compensation for women and men.
Governance & Profile Disclosures
