جوهر الإفصاح
This disclosure asks an organisation to explain the social targets it has set in relation to affected communities, and to show how those targets connect to its impacts, risks and opportunities. In practice, the report should make clear what the target is trying to achieve, the baseline or starting point, the timeframe, and how progress is being tracked. It is not enough to list ambitions in general terms; the organisation should show that the targets are specific and linked to the issues that matter for communities.
The practical focus is on whether the targets are meaningful across the parts of the business that create the relevant community impacts, rather than only at a few visible or flagship locations. Organisations should therefore consider whether targets apply across operations, projects, sites, or value chain activities where community effects arise, and explain any exclusions or differences in coverage. The aim is to help readers understand how the organisation is using targets to manage and improve its relationship with affected communities in a consistent way.

Request the community target details and supporting evidence
حوّل الإفصاح إلى سؤال عمل داخلي، ثم كيّفه بما يتوافق مع مصطلحات مؤسستك.
What community-related targets has the business set, and what are the baseline, timing, scope and KPI links behind them?
Use your organisation’s own wording first, then map it to the reporting fields. For example, if you talk about neighbourhood programmes, local partnerships, beneficiary groups or place-based commitments, use those terms in the request and only translate them afterwards for reporting. Keep the ask in business language, not framework language, and check the source material before sign-off.
طلب ضعيف
Please provide the ESRS S3 targets, including the baseline, scope, timeline and KPI linkage.
لماذا يفشل: This uses framework wording that many operational owners will not use day to day, so it can slow down the response and lead to partial or misread answers. It also does not tell the owner what internal artefacts to pull together or how to present the information in their own language first.

ملاحظة منهجية
We have described the target using the measure selected for tracking, the starting reference point, the intended end value, the period over which it is meant to be achieved, and the communities or places it covers.
ملاحظة سياقية
These figures show the intended change from the opening position to the planned end point, and they indicate which communities or locations are included in the commitment.
بيان التقلبات
If the figures move over time, explain whether the change reflects a revised target level, a different starting reference, a shift in timing, or a change in the communities or geography covered.

| I have kept the coverage figure to the parts of the business and supply chain we actually reviewed, and I can show how we decided what was in and out. | The assurer may test whether the boundary was set consistently, whether exclusions were justified, and whether the figure could be overstated or incomplete because some relevant activities were left out. | Boundary memo or scoping note; list of included and excluded entities, sites, activities and value-chain stages; rationale for exclusions; sign-off from the reporting owner or control function. |
| I can trace the figure back to source records, and the underlying data were checked for obvious gaps, duplicates and internal inconsistencies before we published them. | The assurer may probe whether the data are complete, accurate and free from double counting, and whether any manual adjustments were made without proper support. | Source extracts; data lineage or mapping file; reconciliation checks; exception logs; evidence of review of duplicates, missing records and manual overrides; approval trail. |
| Where we used estimates or proxies, I have documented the basis and can explain why they were needed and how sensitive the result is to those choices. | The assurer may challenge whether estimates were reasonable, whether assumptions were biased, and whether the disclosed figure would change materially under different inputs. | Estimation methodology; assumption log; proxy selection rationale; sensitivity analysis; working papers showing calculations; management review notes. |
| The evidence pack includes the documents we relied on to prepare the disclosure, so the published statement can be tied back to contemporaneous records. | The assurer may look for whether evidence was created after the fact, whether it is sufficiently specific to the reported figure, and whether the audit trail is strong enough to support the claim. | Meeting notes; data requests and responses; spreadsheets or system reports; correspondence with internal owners or external parties; version history; document retention index. |
| Before release, we ran a final check to make sure the wording, numbers and cross-references were consistent with the supporting files and with the rest of the report. | The assurer may test for transcription errors, inconsistent terminology, broken links between narrative and numbers, and contradictions with other sections of the report. | Pre-publication review checklist; proofread or tie-out sheet; cross-reference check; final draft versus source comparison; approval from finance, sustainability and legal or disclosure reviewers. |

أمثلة توضيحية
أمثلة اصطناعية من إعداد LRA — ليست مقتبسة من تقرير شركة ولا من نص أي معيار.
We set a 2028 goal to cut the share of workers in our direct operations who report low trust in grievance handling from a 2024 starting point of 18% to 8%, covering our own sites in three countries where we employ 12,500 people. Progress is tracked through our employee trust score, which is the KPI linked to this target, and we review it annually against the same baseline so the trend is comparable over time.
This example shows how to describe a social target in plain language: state the starting point, the intended end point, where it applies, when it should be reached, and which metric is used to monitor it.
We are aiming by 2030 to reduce the proportion of contract workers in our assembly and testing operations who say they would not raise a concern through our channels from a 2025 starting level of 24% to 10%, across four manufacturing locations in two regions where we have 9,000 direct and agency workers. The measure we use to follow this commitment is our speak-up confidence KPI, and we compare each year’s result with the 2025 baseline.
This example shows a second way to present the same kind of information: make the target, starting point, deadline, location coverage, and linked performance measure easy to identify without copying the standard’s wording.

سيناريوهات للتمرّن
Your community-relations team has agreed a target to improve access to local jobs in two districts where your operations are concentrated. The draft note says the aim is to 'increase opportunities' but does not say which districts are covered, what starting point was used, or when the change should be achieved.
A business unit has a target to reduce complaints from residents near one site. The draft uses last year’s complaint count as the reference point, but the team has not explained whether that count is the baseline for the target or just background context.
Your sustainability team has drafted a target to improve community engagement scores across all operating areas, but the KPI dashboard only tracks engagement at one flagship site. The draft also leaves out any mention of how the target connects to that dashboard measure.
Management wants to report a target to increase local procurement from community suppliers over the next three years. The draft says the target is 'long term' and mentions a procurement metric, but it does not say whether the metric is the one used to monitor delivery or whether the timeline is fixed.

الأسئلة الشائعة
أسئلة تجيب عنها هذه الصفحة
Start with the plain-language explainer, then work through the step-by-step preparation section to gather the listed datapoints and shape a first draft. The page also gives narrative starters and a content-index line you can use to turn the data into report-ready wording.
The page says to prepare five datapoints: target setting, affected area, starting point, delivery timetable and metric link. Use those as your minimum data set before you write the narrative or build the table.
The page flags affected area as one of the datapoints to prepare, so you should identify the area covered by the disclosure and keep the scope consistent across your narrative, table and evidence pack. The page does not give a formal definition, so use the explainer and your internal records to keep the scope clear and documented.
Starting point is one of the datapoints the page tells you to prepare, so you should capture the baseline you are measuring against before the target or action plan begins. The evidence pack and assurance claims sections are there to help you show where that baseline came from and why it is reliable.
Use the step-by-step preparation section to assign who owns each datapoint and who signs off the draft. The workbook is designed to help you organise that work so the narrative, data and evidence are all traceable to the right owner.
The page includes an evidence pack with five items specifically for assurance readiness, so you should assemble those materials alongside the draft. Keep the pack linked to the five assurance claims so a reviewer can trace each claim back to supporting evidence.
The page lists five assurance claims with a claim, risk and evidence view, which you can use to test whether the disclosure is supported and internally consistent. Treat them as a checklist for challenge, not as a substitute for your own controls and source documents.
The page has a section on common reporting gaps and mistakes, so use it as a pre-submission check before you finalise the draft. It is especially useful for spotting missing datapoints, weak evidence or inconsistent wording between the narrative and the table.
The Download Centre includes a Prep & Assurance workbook in .xlsx format, which you can use to organise the datapoints, evidence and assurance checks before drafting. It is meant to support preparation rather than replace judgement or internal review.
The Download Centre also provides a printable Library Card in .pdf format, which is useful as a quick reference while you are preparing the disclosure or checking a draft. Use it alongside the workbook if you want a lighter-weight working copy.
The page includes synthetic illustrative examples, including a quantitative table, to show how the disclosure can be presented in practice. Use them as formatting and drafting aids only, and keep your own numbers and wording consistent with your actual data.
