Etigraf company has been awarded a bronze medal by the leading global rating platform EcoVadis, which evaluates the actions and practices of companies from a corporate social responsibility perspective (including environmental commitment). The bronze medal from EcoVadis was received as a result of an assessment in 4 dimensions: environmental, social, ethical and relating to the supply chain. EcoVadis (www.ecovadis.com) is the sustainable development rating with the strongest reputation in the world. The assessment is carried out using a methodology based on international standards: The Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact, the conventions of the International Labour Organisation (ILO), the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards, the ISO 26000 standard, the CERES action plan and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, also known as the Ruggie Framework.

The main benefits of implementing the EcoVadis standard are:

• An increase in the level of satisfaction of the Organisation’s stakeholders by increasing the Organisation’s effectiveness in the area of social responsibility
• Continuous improvement in the area of social responsibility through the annual CSR assessment of the organisation
• Possibility to benchmark the organisation’s CSR performance against other organisations in the same industry or region
