ESG DISCLOSURE & METRICS (SEDG FRAMEWORK)

SYNOPSIS :

The growing emphasis on environmental sustainability, social responsibility, and governance has significantly increased the demand for ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting-especially among Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). As regulatory and stakeholder expectations rise, there is a need for simplified and practical tools to support businesses in navigating ESG disclosure requirements.

This program is designed to train facilitators in guiding SMEs through ESG reporting using the Simplified ESG Disclosure Guide (SEDG), supported by Bursa Malaysia’s Centralised Sustainability Intelligence (CSI) Platform. The training introduces the structure and purpose of the SEDG framework, aimed at helping SMEs simplify and enhance their ESG disclosures.

A key component of the training involves methodological approaches to materiality assessment, enabling businesses to develop sustainability materiality matrices tailored to their unique contexts. Detailed discussions on the essential aspects of environmental, social, and governance disclosures will follow, covering key areas such as GHG emissions, energy, water, waste, materials, human rights, labour standards, diversity, occupational health and safety, and community engagement. The program will also focus on governance essentials, including governance structure, policy commitments, risk management, anti-corruption practices, and customer privacy.

While this program equips participants with the skills to support SMEs in submitting ESG data via the CSI platform, it is important to note that CSl platform access is reserved for SMEs/clients only. Facilitators are trained to guide and support these organisations in navigating the reporting process in alignment with national and international sustainability standards.
