ISO standards · Social responsibility

ISO 26000: social responsibility, without the certificate.

ISO 26000 gives guidance on social responsibility, including human rights, labour practices and community engagement.

ISO 26000

  • Type Guidance, not certifiable
  • For Hotels and other businesses
  • We do Readiness, implementation, internal audit

What the standard covers

Guidance, not a certificate.

ISO 26000 is not a certifiable standard. It is essential for businesses that want to align their operations with ethical practices.

Green Partner helps you integrate its principles into your corporate strategy, fostering a culture of accountability and transparency.

For hotels, that covers your people, your suppliers and your local community, and it supports the social part of your ESG reporting.

A note on certification

Because ISO 26000 is guidance, no one can certify you against it. Be careful with any offer that says otherwise.

How we implement it

Four steps to a system that works.

The same method we use for every standard: first understand, then improve, only then invest.

  1. Readiness reviewWhere your organisation stands against the requirements of ISO 26000.
  2. Plan and documentationThe procedures, records and responsibilities the standard asks for, and nothing more.
  3. Training and implementationYour team learns why each requirement matters and how to keep it running.
  4. Internal auditWe review your progress against the guidance and report it to management.

If you need more explanation or context, feel free to ask.
