What are the main changes in the Questionnaire compared to last year?
About 80% of the questions are the same as in 2008. SAM has conducted a methodology refinement to reflect the changing nature and rapid development of sustainability issues. The 2009 questionnaire still follows the established Triple Bottom Line format (i.e. economic, social and environmental dimension), but the content has been adapted to reflect the internal value drivers of a company. An explanation of how corporate sustainability creates value is available in our “Value through sustainability” document at www.sam-group.com/assessment.
