The ISO guidance on social responsibility: seven principles, the practices of recognizing social responsibility and engaging stakeholders, seven core subjects with thirty-seven issues each carrying the actions and expectations an organization should meet, and the guidance on integrating social responsibility throughout the organization. Built from the complete 2010 edition; guidance in should form, not certifiable.

Verified

ISO 26000:2010 is a compliance framework from International (ISO/TMB WG SR; adopted as NF, SIST, NEN, BS, AS and other national standards) with 10 domains and 77 controls that map to 167 other frameworks.

Coverage is not the same as your position

ISO 26000:2010 is a compliance framework from International (ISO/TMB WG SR; adopted as NF, SIST, NEN, BS, AS and other national standards) with 10 domains and 77 controls. The ISO guidance on social responsibility: seven principles, the practices of recognizing social responsibility and engaging stakeholders, seven core subjects with thirty-seven issues each carrying the actions and expectations an organization should meet, and the guidance on integrating social responsibility throughout the organization. Built from the complete 2010 edition; guidance in should form, not certifiable. It is used by organisations to establish and maintain compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
