Five Steps to Comply with the Taxonomy Regulation

Through the European Green Deal, EU aims to improve the well-being and health of citizens, make Europe climate-neutral by 2050, and protect, conserve, and enhance EU’s natural capital and biodiversity. Reaching these goals require a financial system that is more sustainable than it is today as EU aims to channel private investment into the transition to a climate neutral, climate resilient, resource-efficient, and fair economy. The EU’s Sustainable Finance package is one of the instruments of the EU Commission for delivering the policy objectives defined under the European Green Deal, and for delivering on EU’s international commitments on climate and sustainability.

To accommodate the need for a more sustainable finance sector, EU released the EU Taxonomy Regulation on the 12th of July 2020. The EU Taxonomy Regulation and EU’s Sustainable Finance Strategy was strengthened with the release of the Sustainable Finance Package on the 21st of April 2021. The package included, among others, the release of the EU Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act and a proposal for a Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive which revises the NFRD.

The EU Taxonomy is a robust and science-based tool for companies and investors that provides criteria for determining which economic activities substantially contributes to the Green Deal objectives. The criteria also provide a common language that allows companies and investors to communicate credibly about green activities and assist the transition to a low-carbon economy.

Minimize workplace safety risks during COVID-19

covid-19 risk management

Are you aware of the risks caused by COVID-19 on your workplace? Does your company have a waterproof plan to manage them?

Our shared challenge is to make sure business works as usual, even in uncertain times. A safe workplace is not a matter of course. Many of us work in at least somewhat vulnerable working conditions. Most remote workers who are now returning to work can be exposed to the coronavirus (COVID-19) either on their way to, or at work. The global pandemic naturally raises a lot of questions in the work community that require clear answers and safe solutions from the leaders. By identifying and systematically managing the risks posed by a pandemic, you can build trust in the work community and ensure that your business works even in times of uncertainty.

How do I secure business continuity?

In order to ensure the profitability of your business it is important to identify what your business cannot afford to lose. Identifying and conserving critical resources and operations is necessary for a company to be able to avoid fatal losses during a crisis. Critical resources can be divided into six groups; employees, facilities, key functions, warehouses or special equipment, IT resources and key third parties such as investors, subcontractors, and suppliers. Identifying and protecting these critical resources will help you reduce your risks.

Developing a crisis strategy and strengthening operational reliability are an integral part of business continuity in uncertain conditions. The Ecobio Manager SaaS-service provides an easy-to-use and hands-on way to maintain reliability with the help of risk management and compliance tools. The tool can be customized to suit the needs and size of your business.

Identifying risks can help you understand how vulnerable your business is to the dangers of an epidemic. In particular small businesses have limited resources, which makes using them effectively essential.
