Microsoft Sustainability Manager: Ensure GRI compliance with latest template updates
Extending Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) assessments with optional and recommended requirements enhances the depth, relevance, and credibility of sustainability reporting. It enables organizations to:
- Align with evolving stakeholder and regulatory expectations.
- Provide more sector-specific and meaningful disclosures.
- Strengthen environmental, social, and governance (ESG) positioning and transparency.
- Support future-proofing and strategic decision-making.

The GRI template now includes optional and recommended requirements for all topic-specific and sector standards. They broaden ESG disclosure coverage and align the template with the evolving GRI Standards.
Use the updated template on the Standards page in the External reporting module and create assessments to view and respond to applicable requirements. This makes sustainability reporting more comprehensive and compliant.
