The 23 ESG Criteria for Sustainable FM
We use 23 ESG criteria to assess organisations against in our SFMI assessments. This report is a guide for FM providers, FM Teams and Property teams, and explains each of the 23 ESG criteria, how it relates to sustainability in the built environment; its impact on FM roles, and how to manage them. It also shows how the criteria interlink with each other and outlines what sustainable FM leaders should be achieving according to the SFMI scoring assessment. The criteria are updated annually to reflect key industry and regulatory changes
