Operations with significant negative impacts on local communities

Measurement answer

What this metric measures

Structured profile of operations reported as having significant actual or potential negative impacts on local communities, retaining impact state, domain, significance basis and community context.

Reporting boundary

Keep actual and potential impacts separate. One operation can have multiple overlapping impact rows and affect multiple communities; rows are not summed.

Cross-library identity

Library mappings and variants

These links compare quantity, population, boundary, period, unit, denominator, aggregation, dimensions, and method edition. Partial relationships are navigation aids only and never authorize observation reuse.

Framework coverage

This is one canonical metric. The bindings below show every verified framework occurrence without creating duplicate metric pages. Edition, disclosure, role, and relationship remain source-specific.

Value structure

Dimensions and units

Unit
Structured table — field-level units: Structured operation-impact records; no universal scalar unit
Reporting basis
Reporting period

Unit meaning: Each table field uses its stated unit. Each row describes an operation-impact relationship. A row is not a community, person, incident or quantified harm.

Table fields and units

  • Operation
  • Location
  • Community context
  • Actual or potential
  • Impact domain
  • Significance basis
  • Assessment date

Published dimensions

  • operation identifier
  • privacy-safe location
  • community or rights-holder group
  • actual or potential impact
  • impact domain
  • significance method
  • assessment date
  • entity boundary and period

Disclosure method

Structured Disclosure

Disclosure form

No single formula

Populate the structured fields from qualifying source observations and retain each field-level unit, boundary, status, and method; do not collapse the disclosure into one calculated value.

Verified sources

Evidence and status sources

Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

Use with context

Interpretation boundaries

Method disclosures required

Source-edition basis: GRI 413: Local Communities 2016, current effective edition at the research cutoff.

  • Identify the operation and privacy-safe community context.
  • State whether each impact is actual or potential and describe the significance method.
  • Do not convert table rows into a harmed-person or community count.

Record-specific limitations

  • The profile reflects identified and reported significant impacts, not all impacts or affected people.
  • It does not establish legal liability, causation, remedy or outcome, and location detail may require suppression.

Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.

Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
