In December 2019, the first global standard for tax transparency published. Effective from 1 January, companies identifying any of these topics as material are now to apply the new Standards.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Responding to the information needs of investors, civil society, labor organizations and others, GRI will get companies to report country-by-country tax payments alongside their management approach to tax. The Standard supports transparency on the tax contribution companies make to the economies in which they operate.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">This updated Standard addresses reporting on occupational health and safety management, including prevention of harm and promotion of health at work. With a central focus on the safety and wellbeing of employees, the OHS Standard is highly relevant as companies respond to the changed circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">GRI also provides a holistic perspective on the impact organizations have on water resources. The updated Standard considers how water is managed, inclusive of impacts on local communities, and gives a full picture of water usage, from withdrawal to consumption and discharge.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Bastian Buck, GRI Chief of Standards, said \u201cThese three GRI Standards now in effect will be applicable to many organizations around the world, helping them respond to the emerging demands of their stakeholders. From tax transparency to employee wellbeing and water stewardship, they cover crucial issues that illuminate corporate contributions to sustainable development.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cThe GRI Standards seek to enable companies to communicate the full range of their impacts on the economy, the environment and society. That is why they are regularly reviewed, with content updated and the addition of new topics considered.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cLooking ahead, we are not standing still.
