Japanese version of assurance procedure guide now available

ICMM’s interpretive guide to help member companies apply the Assurance Procedure is now available to download in Japanese.

It is intended to help guide ICMM member companies through the process of assuring their sustainability reports. Assurance providers may also find value in using this common interpretive framework.

The guide draws on the experience of ICMM member companies and assurance providers in applying the Assurance Procedure over the past two years. For instance, a May 2010 review identified some variations in interpretation and the need for greater clarity on certain issues.

It should be read in conjunction with the ICMM Assurance Procedure, also available in Japanese, which outlines the commitment of ICMM company members to obtain independent external assurance of their sustainability performance and reporting obligations.

The requirement for member companies to fully implement the Assurance Procedure came into effect in 2010.
