The Transparency Benchmark is a biennial measurement that measures how transparent the social reporting of Dutch companies is. Are you a participant? Or do you want to participate in the Transparency Benchmark 2023? Then don't miss this online kick-off.
The government considers it important that Dutch companies are transparent in their reporting on their activities and policies in the social sphere (CSR). To encourage this, the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate (EZK) and the Royal Netherlands Institute of Chartered Accountants (NBA) annually compile the Transparency Benchmark. In preparation for the Transparency Benchmark, the Transparency Transparency Benchmark 2023 Kick-off event is held.

This event is for (future) participants of the Transparency Benchmark 2023. Are you not part of the Transparency Benchmark 2023 participant group, but would you like to participate?

After the voluntary participation is received, you can also register for this online kick-off event.
The event
During the online kick-off on 26 April 2023, trends and developments in CSR reporting are discussed and important tips for transparently reporting on the social impact of your company are given. Moreover, we discuss the criteria of the Transparency Benchmark and how the self-assessment tool works.
