In the jungle of CSR labels, a new one has just been created: Responsibility Europe. But this one allows companies or organisations that have obtained a label for corporate social responsibility in their respective countries to benefit from a single label, grouping them together and recognisable at international level.
Created on the initiative of the Afnor group in France, Ecoparc in Switzerland and INDR in Luxembourg, it represents a guarantee of legibility and credibility, says the in a press release published on 18 June: "It guarantees that the labelled company or organisation has been evaluated according to a transparent methodology and subjected to on-site quality control by a third party.
To benefit from it, a company must have obtained a label from the three bodies that initiated the process - in Luxembourg this is the ESR label issued by the INDR. And other labels should join the initiative: "We are starting discussions so that other players can join us," says Alain Jounot, President of Responsibility Europe. "We want to create a European movement. We invite organisations that have developed a label to assess the social and environmental impact of organisations to join us in order to combine our expertise and firmly establish a European vision of CSR labelling," he explains.
