In today’s context of climate, environmental, and socio-economic crisis, knowing and measuring the economic, social, environmental, and governance impacts generated by our activities is more important than ever. For only by becoming aware of the ongoing challenges and quantifying these impacts can we design effective and efficient strategies and actions for improvement.

This awareness prompted us to adopt the legal status of a Benefit Corporation and commit to measuring, reducing and regularly monitoring our impacts. Do you want to find out what it means for us to be a Benefit Society and a B Corp? Want to learn more about it? Download the “Impact Report 2023.

During 2022 , Etifor conducted a comprehensive assessment of its impacts through the B Impact Assessment (BIA), an assessment tool designed by the non-profit organisation B Lab that evaluates the company’s performance in five areas: Governance, Environment, Workers, Community and Customers.

After the verification process carried out by B Lab, Etifor achieved an overall score of 100.8 (minimum threshold required to obtain certification: 80 points; average score of applicant companies: 50.9). This score enabled Etifor to obtain B Corp certification.

Further information is available in the ‘Impact Report 2023’.

POSITIVE IMPACTS 2023

In addition to the assessment conducted with the BIA, Etifor has structured a system to monitor the impacts of its projects, to more accurately report progress toward the specific impact goals stated in its statute. The impacts reported only refer to projects completed in the year under review (2023) and therefore do not include all positive impacts in the previous ten years.

Within the “Impact Report 2023” we have listed the indicators monitored and the results achieved by Etifor during 2023.
