Social Audits
Social Audits
A social audits is a process that evaluates an organization’s social, environmental, and ethical performance. It involves systematically assessing the impact of our actions on society, communities, and the environment.

- Identify Gaps and Areas for Improvement: Recognize areas where we can enhance our social responsibility efforts.
