The 11 reports present key insights into the societal impacts of 11 major economic sectors, offering a detailed analysis of both direct and upstream impacts across leading global economies. The sectors covered include Transportation, Extractives and Minerals Processing, Financials, Food and Beverage, Healthcare, Infrastructure, Renewable Resources, Resource Transformation, Services, Technology and Communication, and Consumer Goods.
For each sector, impact statements are quantified in monetary terms, with comparability across countries, sectors, and companies. These are represented as Impact Intensities (EUR of impact per EUR of output), providing a comprehensive view of the societal consequences of economic activities across different stages of the value chain – own operations, and upstream tiers 1, 2, and 3 to n.
The report also provides sector-based benchmarks, enabling companies to compare their reported or estimated impacts against sector-specific values.
This resource is a valuable tool for companies, financial institutions, policymakers, and researchers aiming to understand and enhance the societal impact of their operations and investments. Download the full set or individual papers to access these valuable insights.
