Суть раскрытия
Disclosure 417-3 requires the organization to report incidents of non-compliance concerning marketing communications in three categories:
regulatory incidents resulting in a fine or penalty;
regulatory incidents resulting in a warning; and
incidents involving non-compliance with voluntary codes.
Marketing communications include activities used to promote the organization, its reputation, brands, products or services. Examples include advertising, personal selling, promotion, public relations, social media and sponsorship.
If no non-compliance with regulations or voluntary codes was identified, a brief statement is sufficient.
When compiling the disclosure, exclude incidents where the organization was determined not to be at fault. Where applicable, identify reported incidents connected with events in periods before the reporting period.
Complaints, allegations, campaign corrections and open investigations are not automatically reportable incidents. They must be assessed to determine whether non-compliance with a regulation or voluntary code was established.
Product and service information and labeling incidents belong under GRI 417-2. Policies, controls, corrective actions and broader topic management belong primarily under Disclosure 3-3 where marketing and labeling is a material topic.

| We reported the number of regulatory marketing-communications incidents that resulted in a fine or penalty. | Penalties might be omitted, combined with warnings or mixed with product-labeling or product-safety incidents. | Final regulator or court decisions, penalty notices, legal register, incident files and reconciliation to the published number. |
| We reported the number of regulatory marketing-communications incidents that resulted in a warning. | Formal warnings might be omitted because no monetary penalty was imposed. | Warning notices, regulator findings, legal register and category reconciliation. |
| We reported the number of marketing-communications incidents involving non-compliance with voluntary codes. | Voluntary-code incidents might be omitted or mixed with ordinary internal procedural deviations. | Applicable code, final self-regulatory or documented internal determination and incident classification. |
| We excluded only incidents in which the organization was determined not to be at fault. | Open, inconclusive or inconvenient matters might be removed without a supported not-at-fault determination. | Regulator, court, self-regulatory or investigation conclusions and the exclusion log. |
| We identified reported incidents connected with events in periods before the reporting period. | The category numbers might be correct, but required prior-period-event identification could be omitted. | Communication dates, determination and resolution dates, case chronology and prior-period flag. |
| Where all three categories were zero, our statement covered both regulations and voluntary codes. | The zero statement might be based only on regulator records and omit voluntary-code or self-regulatory findings. | Complete source-register reconciliation, responsible-owner confirmations and final sign-off. |

Как компании раскрывают GRI 417-3 на практике
Примеры полного и частичного раскрытия на практике. Это разборы на основе доказательств, а не готовые шаблоны для копирования.
Zydus Lifesciences Limited provides a clear zero-incidents figure for GRI 417-3.
The Ethical Marketing Performance table on page 135 reports zero incidents of non-compliance concerning marketing communications for FY 2024–25 and each of the three preceding periods.
Because GRI 417-3 permits a brief statement where no non-compliance with regulations or voluntary codes has been identified, the zero figure can satisfy the disclosure if it covers both sources of non-compliance.
The current card should:
cite the marketing-communications row on page 135 rather than the separate product-information and labeling row;
remove materiality and risk-management information from page 148;
remove the suggestion that unspecified narrative elements are missing;
verify whether the zero figure covers regulations and voluntary codes; and
classify the disclosure as substantially aligned with the zero-incidents route.
The current card cites the wrong row, although the same report separately provides a zero figure specifically for marketing communications.
Firstsource Solutions Limited’s GRI Content Index provides a zero-incidents statement for GRI 417-3.
The index states that no incidents of non-compliance with marketing-communication regulations or voluntary codes were reported during the reporting period.
It also describes the disclosure as “not applicable” because Firstsource operates business-to-business and follows ethical communication guidelines. That rationale should be treated cautiously: a business-to-business model does not by itself make marketing communications or GRI 417-3 inapplicable.
The current card should:
remove all references to forced or compulsory labor and GRI 409-1;
remove occupational health and safety data;
cite the GRI Content Index location containing the zero statement;
recognise that the statement expressly covers regulations and voluntary codes;
note that “not applicable” is not supported solely by the business-to-business nature of the company; and
classify the zero statement as relevant GRI 417-3 evidence.
Firstsource’s report expressly maps GRI 417-3 and states that no non-compliance with marketing-communication regulations or voluntary codes was reported.
Owens Corning’s 2024 Sustainability Report provides a relevant but qualified zero-incidents statement on page 184.
The Product Transparency section states that the company had no material incidents of non-compliance with regulations or voluntary codes concerning labeling, marketing or advertising of its products and material services.
The statement has two limitations for GRI 417-3:
it combines labeling with marketing and advertising, spanning both GRI 417-2 and GRI 417-3; and
it is restricted to “material” incidents, while GRI 417-3 does not prescribe a materiality threshold.
The current card should:
remove parental-leave data;
remove employee health-screening information;
remove assurance-provider independence information;
use page 184 as the principal evidence;
identify the combined labeling/marketing scope;
identify the unsupported materiality qualifier; and
classify the disclosure as partial rather than complete.
Owens Corning’s actual relevant disclosure appears on page 184 and combines labeling, marketing and advertising under a “no material incidents” statement.
