Podcast: ISO 26000 for Social Responsibility Has Implications for ERP
The ISO 26000 standard
for
social
responsibility - due for official
release in September of 2010 - is influenced heavily by th e
UN Global Compact. Are you ready for this new standard? What are the
implications for
ERP
and other enterprise
software industrial companies use to run their business?
In this month's
interview segment of the IFS Radio Network podcast series, APICS-certified
expert Bill Leedale, senior advisor with IFS North America, provides an
overview, describing how the right enterprise software can ease
compliance in the key areas of human rights, labor, the environment and
corruption.

"It
seems that there needs to be a way for
companies to be aware of their impact on the
various areas that the UN and ISO consider
important from a corporate citizenship
perspective - especially when we look at the
Gulf right now that is full of oil. BP does
not seem to have a very good reputation for
being a good corporate citizen right now in
the marketplace - and that is just the
latest example... It doesn't matter if you
are a large organization or a small to
medium organization, there is a need to be
aware of the 10 principles of the compact as
well as how those principles relate to the
ISO 26000 document that is coming out in a
couple months."
