Social Value is at a crossroads, and Roy Ramrutton at EMCOR UK, hits the nail on the head. 📌Key takeaway? The opportunity to unite data, transparency, and purpose has never been clearer - or more critical. Check out his post and let's keep driving change! #SocialValue #Sustainability #EDI
Is Social Value... UNDER THREAT? This week, I have had the privilege to attend Institute for Social Value Annual Conference 2024 and BSI' Corporate Disclosures event. There are new political forces, misinformation and inward thinking toward equality which does carry a threat to social value. However, our UK Government (past and present) are committed thankfully e.g. from Levelling-up Agenda, PPN06/20 to the forthcoming Procurement Act. The Panel discussions were extremely interesting and reassuring! So a big thank you to Isabelle Parasram OBE and all those who shared their insights, approaches and outcomes. This is me 'punching' as I am still scratching the surface (& my head), but Corporate Disclosures are adding weight to our shared cause, folks! Is EMCOR UK in scope? Either way, it will impact us and one of my many takeaways (including a new phrase ‘DMA’ - Double Materiality Assessment); is this is an opportunity to further unite our business in terms of sustainability whilst also supporting our customers in this space. With a substantial number of 'jurisdictions' adopting CSRD and the UK working on its version of this global reporting standard, coupled with TCFD, TNFD and Taskforce on Inequality and Social-related Financial Disclosures (TISFD) all in play; I expect social value to remain and be triumphant! There is plenty of work to do broadly speaking and we must all continue sharing our success stories as a means of building trust, integrity, and accountability to avoid social value green washing. There is another side which is quantitative outputs. This speaks more to those with a numbers bias. It is both complimentary & key if the data is assured/independently verified, which is why we use Social Value Portal. Having gone through their data validation process we have set ourselves a target which is to unlock the equivalent of 1/3 Turnover by 2026 and 50% by 2030 Y/end in social value (TOMs framework). My aim here is to blend this with a commitment to driving social mobility for our stakeholders. So, to all that live and breathe #socialvalue #sustainability #EDI; let us keep using business and investor reporting requirement opportunities to change attitudes and behaviours which will lead to better outcomes for our people & planet.
