The European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS)

The ESRS are reporting standards for sustainability within the EU. They provide a window into business operations, offering insights into their social and environmental impacts. The ESRS are 12 in total, divided into two categories: cross-cutting disclosures and topical disclosures.

Cross-cutting Disclosures

These are broad standards that all companies must include in their reporting. ESRS 1 contains mandatory principles for the preparation and disclosure of sustainability statements in accordance with the CSRD. ESRS 2 details the disclosures all companies must include in their sustainability reporting. These disclosures apply to all sustainability matters.
