BRSR Principle-Wise Guide
A working guide to the nine NGRBC principles that structure every BRSR disclosure.
BRSR Principle-Wise Guide, without the jargon
BRSR is organised around the nine principles of the National Guidelines on Responsible Business Conduct — covering ethics, product stewardship, employee wellbeing, stakeholder engagement, human rights, environment, policy advocacy, inclusive growth and consumer value. A principle-wise guide translates each into the essential, leadership and comply-or-explain indicators companies must address.

Why sustainability teams act on this
- Disclosures are structured principle by principle, so owners must grasp each
- Each principle mixes essential, leadership and comply-or-explain indicators
- A shared guide keeps disclosures consistent across departments

- 01Principle mapping
Break each of the nine principles into its required indicators.
- 02Owner briefing
Assign principles to functions and brief them on the evidence needed.
- 03Consistency review
Cross-check disclosures across principles for coherence and completeness.
