Campaign: Social Fingerprint®

(3BL Media / theCSRfeed) September 14, 2011 - On September 21-23, Social Accountability International (SAI) will be in Portland, Oregon asking sustainability professionals from around the world: "What's Your Social Fingerprint?"



At the ISSP Conference 2011, the first face-to-face summit of ISSP members and other sustainability professionals, SAI's Director of Corporate Programs and Training Direct, Craig Moss, will give the presentation "Social Fingerprint: Practical Tools to Measure and Improve Social Performance," and discuss how this new tool is being used by over 300 companies worldwide to measure and improve their social performance. Participating companies, primarily suppliers to multi-national brands and retailers, have engaged in this program of ratings, training and toolkits.

 
Based on over a decade of experience, Social Fingerprint® includes the Social Fingerprint® Company Rating System, the Social Fingerprint® Supply Chain Management Rating System, plus all of the components needed to help companies build capacity immediately. Companies can pick and choose from the Social Fingerprint® program components to enhance their existing corporate code of conduct program, or they can use the program to evaluate their own social performance or that of their suppliers.



The ISSP Conference 2011, September 21-23 in Portland, Oregon, is the first ever face-to-face summit of ISSP members and other sustainability professionals. This unique event will focus on generating knowledge and solutions to help practitioners speed the adoption of sustainability within organizations.
 
The program features learning and co-creation sessions on cutting-edge topics.  Sessions are designed to provide you with skills, knowledge and tools from industry experts and provide you with the opportunity to influence the shape and future of the sustainability profession.  The concurrent sessions of the conference are organized around three conference themes:

  • Stories from the Field features presentations of on-the-ground implementation from organizations like Mattel and SAP

  • Emerging Strategies offers presentations on strategies for building the business case, engaging employees and developing cultures of sustainability

  • Sustainability Tools demonstrates the latest sustainability assessments, reporting standards and more
