About the Source

The non- profit organization (NGO) Rank a Brand aims to provide consumers with a tool that helps them consume in a more considered and sustainable way. To achieve this, Rank a Brand carries out research on the webpages of hundreds of Brand manufacturers and accumulates all statements on the following topics: 1. Climate policy, 2. Protection of the environment and 3. Working conditions and human rights. The evaluation is based upon a short list of criteria that is in line with the strictest standards of the respective industry. The aggregate assessments (the "Ranking") as well as the individual criteria are published on the NGO´s webpage. To identify the green, yellow and red light companies, the percentage of achieved points in relation to the total possible points was determined. The Classification starts with the letter "A", for deep green with brands who have gained more than 75% of the total amount and ends with "E" which is considered red and for brands who gained less than 15%. This source is "hard" and influences the Sustainability Foorprint three times. This source is considered as "hard" and therefore has a threefold impact on the Sustainability Footprint.

About the Source

The CSR company check is executed by the Consumer Initiative Federal Association e.V. With the help of a comprehensive questionnaire created by the Eco-Institute retail enterprises are asked and tested about their sustainability. The valuation consists of many criteria which evaluate the core business, the supply chain and the support of sustainable consumption. A part of the valuation is for example the task to identify if companies have socially conscious consuming guidelines or which actions are taken regarding the internal sustainability management. After a severe validation the best enterprises get a gold, silver or bronze medal. All companies on the podium receive a green Sustainability Footprint because they can be seen as sort of CSR trailblazers. Anyhow there is neither a publication of the companies that have not participated in the survey nor of those that come off badly. This source is classified as a “middle strong” one and therefore flows in twofold into the Sustainability Footprint. More detailed information about the methodology of the Sustainability Footprint can be found on the Method site.

About the Source

On a daily basis, RepRisk scans several thousand independent sources in 13 languages, searching for reports that criticize corporations in the areas of environmental-, human rights-, labor rights- and corporate governance- issues. Typical accusations include: environmental pollution, greenwashing, human rights abuses, forced relocation, slave- and child labour, corruption, fraud, controversial products and other violations of national legislation or international standards. The criticism is then summarized, analysed and evaluated. The RepRisk index (RRI) is a quantification of the risks and allows for controversial companies to be identified. The RRI does not reflect the actual sustainability achievements of a company as it only looks at negative criticism. The RRI is thus a risk measurement rather than a reputational- or sustainability evaluation. The Peak RRI is a measure for the environmental- and social risks of a corporation and is interpreted as follows: 0-24 = low risk (green), 25-49 = medium risk (amber), 50-74 = high risk (red), 75-100 = very high risk (red). The online tool RepRisk is primarily used by banks, asset managers and pension funds. The source is considered "hard", if more than 5 media reports are listed and the Peak RRI was higher than 24. Therefore the source has a threefold impact on the Sustainability Footprint, otherwise a twofold. More detailed information can be found on our methodology page.
