BSR Insight | OECD’s Business Guide to Sustainable Growth
The OECD’s new Sustainable Manufacturing Toolkit helps businesses—particularly small- to medium-sized companies and supply chain firms—grow more sustainably by improving their operational efficiency, reviewing the materials they use for production, rethinking their products’ benefits and challenges, and supporting continuous improvement in their teams.
The toolkit includes indicators that companies can use to measure the environmental performance of manufacturing facilities across all sectors and countries.
It contains:
- Step-by-step guidance on how to measure environmental impacts, including: setting priorities, choosing relevant indicators, measuring inputs, evaluating products, understanding results, and making improvements.
- A web portal that includes searchable information on indicators as well as links to other resources such as technical information, best practices, a glossary of terms, data tools, and other initiatives to help companies go beyond measurement.
