Measurement answer

What this metric measures

Source-classified severe human-rights incidents connected to the undertaking's own workforce during the reporting period, retained with severity basis, connection, dispute status and source-reported responsible-business-instrument tags.

Reporting boundary

Connection to the own workforce is mandatory. Source-reported instrument tags may overlap and are not additive. A total is not added to its components. Complaint records are not counted again as incidents without an incident-level deduplication key. Do not map this value to future substantiated incidents.

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.

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.

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.

Interpretation boundaries

Method disclosures required

Source-edition basis: Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/2772, consolidated 1 January 2025 — Consolidated 1 January 2025 edition. Retain the exact source edition on every observation; later editions require a separate method profile.

  • Current ESRS S1-17 edition.
  • Severe-incident classification authority and version.
  • Own-workforce connection.
  • Employee, non-employee in own workforce or combined affected population where source reported.
  • Issue type without inferred sensitive categorization.
  • Lawsuit, formal complaint, third-party mechanism, public allegation or other identification channel.
  • Disputed, not disputed or unavailable fact status.
  • Named responsible-business-instrument non-respect tags.
  • Retain the exact measurement-source edition with every observation.
  • One unit is one source-classified incident connected to the own workforce under the declared severity and deduplication method.

Record-specific limitations

  • Severity judgment, legal processes, dispute status and public awareness can change.
  • Cases involving multiple people remain one incident unless the source says otherwise.
  • Privacy and litigation constraints can suppress detail.
  • The count does not measure prevalence.

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.
