The University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) has published two reports on decent work. One looks at disclosures to help investors better assess the number and quality of jobs focused on the green transition in companies. It also makes recommendations for policy makers, ESG data providers and corporate to fill in the gaps and support investors to better measure their invested impact on quality jobs.
The other offers best-practice examples from investors already looking at this area, so that others can improve the impact of their portfolio on supporting decent jobs, “which is one of the most powerful routes to help people out of poverty, start to tackle inequality, realise human rights and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),” says the note accompanying the reports’ release.
