7. Transparency is key to driving sector wide change
Collective review and oversight of the sector Allow information to be reviewed by suppliers, shareholders, enforcement agencies, employees and the public at large Hold governments to account Allow oversight bodies such as parliaments, external auditors, and ultimately the public, to hold governments to account Internal scrutiny and quality Ensure information is seriously considered to reflect the practice
Set expectations
Set the right expectations on the company’s standards and procedures for anyone wishing to engage with the company, whether prospective employees, customers, suppliers or third parties
Create permanence
Possess a legitimacy and permanence which greatly exceeds internal documents
Collective action
Facilitate sharing of learning and resources
