Support pédagogique LRA · Non publié ni approuvé par Global Reporting Initiative
Objet de l’information
This disclosure requires the organization to identify operations with significant actual or potential negative impacts on local communities.
For each relevant operation, report:
its location; and
the significant actual and potential negative impacts associated with it.
The disclosure covers significant economic, social, cultural and environmental impacts on local communities and their rights. It is not limited to nearby residents, environmental incidents or formal complaints.
GRI 413-2 does not require a percentage or coverage figure.
GRI recommends providing additional information on community vulnerability, exposure through shared resources and the intensity or severity, likely duration, reversibility and scale of each significant impact.
Community investment, donations and programme expenditure do not answer this disclosure unless they are relevant to explaining the identified negative impacts.

Préparation à l’assurance
Pour chaque affirmation, vérifiez les preuves
| Affirmation | Risque | Preuves à vérifier |
|---|---|---|
| We identified operations using a documented and consistently applied operating-unit definition. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| We did not calculate or disclose a coverage figure as though it were required by GRI 413-2. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| We considered communities living or working both adjacent to and at a distance from operations where they could be affected. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| We considered significant economic, social, cultural, environmental and human-rights impacts. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| We distinguished actual impacts from potential impacts. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Potential impacts are supported by credible plans, assessments or risk evidence. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Formal complaints were considered but were not used as the only impact-identification source. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Recorded incidents were not classified as significant automatically. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| The financial effect on the organization was not used as the sole significance test. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Each disclosed impact is linked to an identified operation. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Each disclosed operation includes sufficient location information. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Each operation-impact combination is linked to an affected or potentially affected local community. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Different impacts at the same operation are recorded separately where appropriate. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| The disclosure does not replace significant impacts with grievance or remediation counts. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |
| Where recommendations are applied, community vulnerability and exposure factors are supported by evidence. | The published response does not support this human-reviewed assurance check. | Trace the statement to current approved records and the official IFRS source. |

Exemples illustratifs
Synthétiques, rédigés par LRA — ils ne proviennent ni d’un rapport d’entreprise ni du texte d’une norme.
Illustrative synthetic example — Mining
The organization identified significant impacts at three operations:
Operation and location
Actual negative impacts
Potential negative impacts
North Mine, Region A
Dust, traffic and restricted access to agricultural land
Increased water stress from the planned expansion
Central Processing Plant, Region B
Noise and air emissions affecting nearby residents
Community health impacts arising from a potential process failure
Eastern Tailings Facility, Region C
Loss of customary access routes
Land conversion and economic displacement associated with the proposed expansion
The assessment considered affected-community vulnerability and the severity, duration, reversibility and scale of each impact.
Synthetic LRA illustration. Replace every figure and fact with the reporting organisation's evidence.
Illustrative synthetic example — Technology hardware
Two operations were identified:
Manufacturing campus, City D: actual night-time noise and traffic impacts on surrounding residential areas; potential water-access impacts associated with the proposed capacity expansion.
Assembly facility, Region E: actual solvent-odour complaints and potential community-health impacts associated with accidental chemical release.
The organization disclosed the location, affected communities and the nature of each actual and potential impact.
Synthetic LRA illustration. Replace every figure and fact with the reporting organisation's evidence.
Illustrative synthetic example — No significant impacts identified
The organization assessed economic, social, cultural and environmental impacts across its operations and did not identify operations with significant actual or potential negative impacts on local communities during the reporting period.

Rapports d’entreprises
Comment les entreprises publient GRI 413-2 en pratique
Exemples de pratiques de publication complètes et partielles. Ce sont des analyses fondées sur des preuves, non des modèles à recopier.
Wistron provides a direct no-significant-impact response in its 2024 GRI Content Index.
The company states that it assessed the dependence and impacts of its own operations on the local natural environment through the LEAP approach and concluded that there were no significant or potential negative impacts.
The current card should:
recognize that page 272 contains a substantive no-impact statement rather than only a reference to the disclosure title;
remove the claim that items 413-2(a)(i) and 413-2(a)(ii) are missing merely because no operations were listed;
explain that operation locations and impact descriptions are not applicable if no operation meets the significant-impact threshold;
assess whether the LEAP-based review covered the full economic, social, cultural, environmental and rights-related scope of GRI 413-2, rather than only natural-environment impacts;
remove unrelated occupational-hazard references; and
classify the report as a direct no-significant-impact response whose assessment scope requires review.
Do not classify it automatically as either complete or incomplete solely because the result is zero.
Wistron’s index expressly states its assessment approach and no-significant-impact conclusion.
Sumitomo Forestry does not substantively report GRI 413-2 in its 2025 GRI Content Index.
The GRI 413-2 row appears on report page 536 and shows a dash in the disclosure-location column.
The current card should:
correct the page reference from page 537 to page 536;
remove the claim that a covered datapoint is provided;
remove references to forced-labor risk and waste management;
state that the content index does not identify a substantive disclosure location; and
classify GRI 413-2 as not reported unless a separate substantive source is located.
The official content index shows no disclosure location for GRI 413-2.
Hindustan Zinc’s Sustainability Report 2024–25 maps GRI 413-2 to an external Impact Assessment Report.
The GRI mapping appears on report page 113. It does not itself identify the affected operations, their locations or their significant actual and potential negative impacts.
The Community Engagement and Development section on pages 73–82 mainly describes stakeholder engagement, CSR interventions and positive community programmes. These disclosures support GRI 413-1 and the management approach but do not automatically satisfy GRI 413-2.
The revised card should:
correct the principal reference from page 116 to report page 113;
describe page 113 as a GRI content-index cross-reference rather than substantive impact data;
follow and assess the linked external Impact Assessment Report;
verify whether that report identifies operations and locations;
verify whether it describes significant actual and potential negative impacts, rather than only evaluating the positive effectiveness of CSR programmes;
remove the page 119 land-and-resource-rights reference as primary GRI 413-2 evidence; and
classify the disclosure as external cross-reference requiring verification until the linked report is assessed.
Hindustan Zinc’s index maps GRI 413-2 to an Impact Assessment Report without providing the required operation-impact information in the index row itself.
