Comment Constituency Region Reporting Relationship lt be taken into consideration, when applicable, the factor of the life cycle of products, as a criteria to supplier selection. It should also be taken into consideration the pay increase in the area where the suppliers come from. Maybe there could be a nudge towards laying open the list of suppliers and sub-suppliers to a specific or general public. Or an information requirement, how this question is handled of the company. My only qualmn about supply chain guidance is that it is pretty much scatterred all over the document. No no commet none Obsessive attention to governance (as defined by developed country experiences) and labour & human rights which seem to have been shaped by experiences of countries with global supply chains, where the disconnect happens. For Indian companies with national supply chains, subject to same laws and regulations on these aspects, issue is of supporting government initiatives without assuming government’s regulatory role. Obtaining information can be a costly exercise to businesses, as they are required to break down the supplier by region and location. Businesses are asked to report on average the number of days taken to pay suppliers as well gather data and reports. The effort required to prepare these reports must be measured against the actual benefit the reports will provide the business. It is important to note that there should be a clear incentive and or/benefits must be given to entice more businesses to produce transparent reports that help both the business and the global reporting organisation. Organizations conducting Environment, Health & Safety (EHS) Audit periodically shall be acknowledged. Performance on regular EHS (ensuring same through-out the supply chain, where ever applicable) evaluation shall come up as a separate core Indicator.

However, having supply chain is innovative, relevant and necessary. PLEASE Consider that in LATIN AMERICA, this will be a huge effort for companies, that are trying to assume first their own responsibility! And GRI is pushing them to assume the responsibility of the whole chain, and compilate the information of the whole chain. This will automatically, in my view, generate two effects: more consultants surroundings companies efforts to report (with consequences on expenses, outsourcing and others) and besides, the desincentivation of companies to report and use GRI. See comment above. See comments made on scope and type reporting under 'other' comments. Since supply chain is being introduced for the first time as part of Sustainability Reporting, GRI should have approached it by going the development of broad guidelines that are open, flexible and not prescriptive. This should have been the first step to bring sustainability into the supply chain before mandating particular fixed requirements for disclosure at a later date Mediating Latin America Report Reader Institution academic Business Latin America Reporter Mediating Institution Financial Markets & Information Users Mediating Institution Latin America Europe Asia Reporter Consultant Assurance Provider Report Reader Report Reader Former report preparer. Current Academic Business Asia Reporter In developing countries where supply chain often is small and medium enterprises , all the requirements are not feasible to meet. The level of quantitative information required for Supply Chain disclosures will deter organizations from disclosing such information Expectation for entire supply chain to be covered is an unreasonable requirement, similar to issues raised in the value chain approach of Content and Boundary strengthen the link between supply chain mapping, impact/risk assessment, materiality and boundary for supply chain reporting to the effect that reporters are not expected to report on the supply chain performance of their entire supplier base but where impacts/risks are material.
