When/How did this Start? 





 

Gestation began early 90’s (primarily from the Nordic part of EU) 4/01 ISO COPOLCO asked by ISO Council to consider viability of a CSR Standard 6/02 ISO/COPLOCO Workshop in Trinidad meeting – obvious strong agreement that ISO should proceed 9/02 ISO Council accepts report and establishes SAG ISO SR Advisory Group (SAG) late 2002 worked for 18 months on comprehensive report to ISO TMB including an overview of worldwide initiatives. Concluded ISO should go forward with the work

It‘s a Consumer Initiative (1/2) 





COPOLCO is the ISO Co nsumer Pol icy Co mmittee The COPOLCO Workshop in Trinidad, June 2002, had some 90 attendees, with only 2 from industry ISO Council decided about the COPOLCO proposal as requested by ISO procedures

It‘s a Consumer Initiative (2/2) 



The COPOLCO Workshop in Trinidad took place at a time when public discussion was driven by negative headlines about companies like Enron Worldcom Nike US legislation took care of avoiding other comparable cases

„Standard“ or „Guidance Standard “?  

There are many kinds of ISO-„Standards “ A „Gui danc e St and ard “ is a special kind that offers ad vice, pro pos als , ori ent at ion and rec om menda ti ons The USER de cides about their acceptance and practical use.

ISO Stages of Development      

1 2 3 4 5 6

NWIP (NP) Working Draft(s) (WD) Committee Draft (CD) Draft International Standard (DIS) Final Draft International Standard (FDIS) International Standard (IS)

Stages 1-2: Building consensus among experts Stages 3-6: Building national consensus for national voting

Background 

 







6/2004 ISO Conference on SR in Stockholm (355 participants from 66 countries, many developing countries) Issues raised aligned with those of SAG ISO TMB proposed a new WG (rather than an existing TC) to prepare a guidance standard on SR TMB also assigned leadership to Sweden and Brazil (“Twinning” a developed with a developing country; a new strategy to increase ISO participation and buy-in) 10/2004 ISO NWIP circulated among 160 ISO MBs 1/2005: 29-yes; 4-no: start of project decided

About the Standard  

ISO 26000 “Guidance on Social Responsibility” High target: To be applied by all types of organizations, regardless of their size and location

Key characteristics:  International standard providing guidance;

 NOT for certification;  NOT a Management System Standard  NOT for procurement or any other contractual use

Scope 







Assist organizations in addressing their SR by providing practical guidance on engaging stakeholders, implementing/integrating SR, & enhancing credibility of SR reports/claims Increase customer/stakeholder confidence & satisfaction Promote common terminology & broaden SR awareness Emphasize performance results & improvement

Unique & Experimental Development Process  





No ISO/TC; instead, ISO/TMB WG Document development along stakeholder group lines, NOT along NSB lines Voting on the CD stage reverting traditional P-member voting Consensus within many ISO member bodies may be difficult to achieve; important viewpoints not covered by consensus may be reported separately

Stakeholder Groups (representation in WG SR)      

Industry (23.5%) Service, Support, Research, Others (20.5%) Government (20%) Non-Governmental Organizations (17.5%) Consumers (11.5%) Labor (7.5%)
