What EcoVadis is and why it matters to Labman
EcoVadis is a globally recognised sustainability assessment platform that evaluates companies across four key areas: Environment, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement. It gives businesses an evidence-based score out of 100, based on documented policies, actions, and measurable results rather than good intentions alone.
At Labman, we use EcoVadis because it helps us measure sustainability performance in a rigorous, practical way. It also supports customer requirements, gives us an independent benchmark against other businesses, and provides clear feedback on where we can improve next.
