Measuring and Enhancing Social Impact: MyESG's Tools for Corporate Social Responsibility
MyESG has both Social Impact Calculators and Social Assessment Questionnaires which are the tools used to measure and assess the social performance of an organization, emphasising the context of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). These tools help evaluate social factors such as community well-being, workforce conditions, diversity and inclusion, and societal contributions.
MyESG Social Impact Calculator is a digital tool used to quantify and measure the social impact of an organization. It uses data inputs to calculate various social outcomes, such as:
Job creation: How many jobs a business or project creates, along with their quality (e.g., fair wages, benefits).
Community benefits: Contributions to local communities through education, healthcare, infrastructure, etc.
Workplace conditions: Assessing employee satisfaction, diversity and inclusion, labor practices, and health and safety.
Social equity: The extent to which an organization promotes social inclusion, reduces inequalities, or enhances human rights.
MyESG Impact Calculator uses key performance indicators (KPIs), such as the number of beneficiaries, the level of engagement with marginalized communities, the amount of investment in social initiatives, to quantify the impact. They provide a numerical representation of the social outcomes that can help guide decision-making and goal setting for improvement.
Quantifies intangible benefits: Allows businesses to turn social outcomes into measurable data, facilitating transparent reporting and stakeholder engagement.
Guides decision-making: Helps organizations identify areas for improvement in their social performance.
Shows ROI for social projects: Demonstrates the financial and social value created by corporate social responsibility initiatives.
MyESG Social Assessment Questionnaire is a set of structured questions designed to assess the social performance or social impact of an organization, often in a more qualitative manner. This questionnaires is used for a wide variety of purposes, including:

Both tools are crucial for understanding and enhancing the social performance of and organization. While the MyESG Social Impact Calculator offers a data-driven approach to measuring tangible social outcomes, the MyESG Social Assessment Questionnaire provides a broader, qualitative understanding of social practices and policies. Both contribute to ESG reporting, help guide decision-making, and ensure that organizations are positively contributing to society.
