Workplace Word® - ESG and Human Capital Reporting: Contemplating Diversity Disclosures
April 27, 2021

Auditors are even mapping out attestation services for ESG reporting. But when it comes to disclosing Human Capital information, straightforward and satisfactory answers are elusive. For SEC-reporting companies there are few established norms when it comes to diversity-related disclosures, let alone the broader topic of Human Capital issues.
