Objet de l’information
Disclosure 203-2 requires an organization to report examples of its significant identified indirect economic impacts, including positive and negative impacts. An indirect economic impact is an additional economic consequence arising from the direct impact of the organization’s financial transactions and flows of money with stakeholders. It can be monetary or non-monetary and can affect productive capacity, stakeholder well-being and longer-term development prospects.
For each reported example, the organization explains why the impact is significant in the context of relevant external benchmarks and stakeholder priorities. External benchmarks can include national or international standards, protocols, policy agendas, official economic statistics and other authoritative reference points. Internal budget or expenditure comparisons can provide additional context but do not replace the required external context.
The disclosure should report the economic consequence, not only the organization’s activity or direct expenditure. For example, local procurement expenditure is a direct financial flow; related changes in supplier output, employment, income, skills or local tax receipts can be indirect economic impacts.
The organization should select examples through its process for identifying impacts and determining material topics. The selection should reflect significant positive and negative impacts across relevant activities and business relationships and should not be limited to flagship projects or positive success stories.
