Help Develop the Standard
The ISO 26000 social responsibility standard is being written by experts in developed and developing countries – representing a cross-section of stakeholders. The United States Technical Advisory Group (TAG) develops U.S. Stakeholder responses and provides input to the development of the international social responsibility standard.
In order to have effective U.S. participation in the International Working Group, the U.S. TAG needs your help. We are looking for representatives from any size organization from each of the following six stakeholder groups.
- Industry
- Government
- Consumers
- Labor
- Non-governmental organizations
- Service, support, research, and other fields
You can find the stakeholder categories in the ISO document “Guidance on Stakeholder Categories in the ISO/TMB/WG SR (PDF, 141 KB).”
Join the U.S. TAG to participate in the development of the standard.
