Governance

Introduction

 

This Governance Overview outlines the processes and groups responsible for guiding and regulating Verego, its team members, and its outputs.

For each Verego body, their respective Responsibilities and Scope of Engagement are defined.  Responsibilities apply to the entire governance body, unless roles are distinguished within that particular body.  The Scope of Engagement will define the frequency and methodology for which these responsibilities are to be upheld.

If you or someone you know is looking to drive corporate responsibility issues with leaders from across industries, Verego’s Steering Committee may be the right opportunity, including:

  • Support the continuous improvement of the world’s only comprehensive enterprise certification standard, the Verego SRS Standard
  • Access to Verego’s Best Practice Database with over 1,000 examples of management approaches across the range of responsible business issues
  • Webinars and biennial summits to review leading issues affecting international supply chains
  • Share insight and network with leaders in CSR, responsible procurement, and global compliance

Additionally, in order to further align Verego to the same standard to which other organizations are assessed and certified, a Sustainability Policy and Privacy Policy are implemented throughout Verego’s operations.

Verego’s Sustainability Policy was created and is continuously developed to promote responsible Environmental behaviors and processes as well as mitigate negative ecological impacts across the key areas of Pollution, Resource Use, Climate and Habitat.

Verego’s Privacy Policy states the commitment to protect and securely manage any personal or private information, whether it is in the collection, storage, or use of any data or sensitive information.
