  • Establishing an ESG management system as a separate management system: a representative company example

  • eiso helps you establish ESG (environmental, social and governance) as a separate ESG management system, not integrated with certification standards such as ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001. The ESG management system has its own manual, procedures, guidelines and forms, and its own document numbering system (ESG-MN, ESG-PR, ESG-GD, ESG-FM). Its basis is also drawn only from AGENT's ESG materials (ESG manual, procedures, guidelines and cases).

    It is useful in the following cases.

    1. When a customer requires a supplier ESG self-assessment or due diligence: when you must answer ESG questionnaires sent by finished-product manufacturers or overseas customers with supporting documents and data.
    2. When preparing an ESG report or disclosure for the first time: when you must first decide what to measure and who will collect the data.
    3. When you want to manage ESG separately from ISO certification: when you want to build ESG as a separate system without disturbing the ISO documentation system already in operation.

    * The following is a fictional example for explanation. AI output is a draft for reference and does not guarantee an ESG rating or certification. Compare the K-ESG Guidelines indicators and disclosure standards with the published original text.

  • How a general company can approach establishing an ESG management system
  • Representative company model (fictional)Electronics company: assembly of small household appliances, 60 employees, holds ISO 9001 and 14001 certification. Major customers require a supplier ESG self-assessment and an improvement plan, so the company decided to establish an ESG management system separate from its ISO documents.
    1Understanding and assessment1 weekUsing the K-ESG (Korean ESG Guidelines) indicators (disclosure P, environment E, social S, governance G) and the customer's questionnaire, ask "what is needed for the supply chain ESG self-assessment?" and check the indicators in the K-ESG information menu.

    3System establishment3 to 4 weeksSelect only the ESG management system from the certification standards and receive a document system table, the ESG manual table of contents, key procedures, and a double materiality assessment table (a table that weighs the company's impact on the environment and society together with the impact of ESG issues on the company).
    Management System Documentation
    4Individual documents2 to 3 weeksReceive documents that are needed separately, such as an ESG policy, a supplier code of conduct and a human rights management declaration, one at a time as part of the ESG management system.
    Individual Document Development
    5Operation and reviewMonthly and yearlySet indicators and data owners using the "ESG performance indicator (KPI) management table", and review the year's operation with the internal review checklist.
    ICT Management System Operation Guide

    For the representative company, establishing the system takes about 2 to 3 months, and compiling the first data and responding to the self-assessment takes about 3 to 4 months (example). The ISO documentation system is left as it is, and ESG is added as a separate system.

  • How It Is Separated From ISO Management Systems

  • Points to prepare in advance
    1. ESG is a separate management system. In Management System Documentation and Individual Document Writing, the ESG management system cannot be selected together with other standards. To create it together with ISO documents, submit separate requests.
    2. The usage fee is the same as for other standards. It is not eligible for the integration discount. ESG management system documentation is currently in preparation, so please apply through "Contact a staff member" or the usage application form, and a staff member will advise you of the schedule. Individual Document Writing is TBA.
    3. Verify indicators and disclosure standards against the original text. The K-ESG Guidelines and disclosure standards may change. Items the AI is not certain about are marked "To be confirmed", so please check them against the published original text.
    4. Data and decisions are the organization's responsibility. Performance indicator values, materiality judgments and objectives are filled in by the responsible departments and decided by management.
    5. No rating is guaranteed. The output is a draft for reference and does not guarantee an ESG rating or certification result.
