DNV has made use of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guidelines when selecting sustainability indicators to measure its performance.

The GRI provides guidance on how organisations can disclose their sustainability performance, and also provides stakeholders with a universally applicable, comparable framework in which to understand disclosed information. The Guidelines (“G3”) are the foundation of the GRI Framework.

The index below shows you where you can find the main reporting elements and indicators of the GRI. You will find two types of disclosure:

• Profile: Disclosures that set the overall context for understanding organisational performance, such as strategy, profile and governance.
• Performance Indicators: Indicators that elicit comparable information on the economic, environmental, and social performance of the organisation.

The GRI G3 Guidelines can be used to produce the Global Compact’s annually required Communication on Progress (COP), and the index also includes reference to the Global Compact principles for this purpose.

Our summarised COP for all principles is on page 37 in this report.
