ISO26000 addresses a variety of key topics –
- Corporate Governance
- Civil Liberties
- Working Conditions
- Environment
- Ethical Business Practices
- Consumer concerns
- Community involvement and growth
Many of these are already covered by standards like ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001.
ISO 26000 can assist an organization in identifying strengths and shortcomings in how it manages several aspects of social responsibility. This can greatly aid compliance in areas like as human rights, employment law, the environment, and health and safety. Many businesses find it difficult to enter new markets, particularly in foreign countries. This is typically due to a lack of knowledge of social situations, community concerns, and a refusal to integrate into the local community.
ISOmantra can help organizations in developing countries identify risk areas and establish measures to reduce both short-term and long-term risks. Our goal is to help organizations build sustainable operations that benefit both their bottom lines and the communities in which they operate.
