#58 Piotr Biernacki: How To Tailor Sustainability Reports to Your Business-Specific Context

Listen Later

How can and should you address entity-specific reporting?

What does a company do when something it thinks is important for its sustainability doesn't fit into a standardised reporting framework in the language of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS)? 

Today in Frankly Speaking, Richard Howitt is joined by Piotr Biernacki who has been involved in the ESRS right from the beginning in 2020, first as a member of the Project Task Force and now as a member of EFRAG’s Technical Expert Group. Piotr is also ESG Reporting Fellow at Materiality, working with listed companies on sustainability reporting in Poland.

You’ll hear more about:

  • What are entity-specific disclosures and why extra information may be necessary for some companies
    • Piotr's advice when conducting ones materiality assessment and how to know that an issue is to be reported as an entity-specific information
      • How there's still room for companies to tell their sustainability stories in their reports without compromising quality data
        • How challenges companies face now regarding the ESRS will diminish over time
          • The state of sustainability reporting and sustainability performance of companies in Poland

            • ... and more!
