Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) at Workiva

Our commitment to building a better future.

Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) goes far beyond Workiva's standards for financial and sustainability reporting. We are building a comprehensive approach focused on delivering business and social value driven by truth, trust, and transparency. We know the world is complex. Doing the right thing shouldn't be.

Our ESG Data Center

All of our ESG reporting is in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Workiva prioritized submitting disclosures to CDP and EcoVadis in 2022 due to stakeholder requests. As global frameworks evolve, we will continue to evaluate alignment to GRI and SASB.
