EDGE Certification proves your commitment to workplace gender and intersectional equity.

We are pleased to announce the global launch of EDGE Certification, an internationally recognized standard for workplace diversity, equity and inclusion. As an approved certification body for EDGE Certification, we will help organizations worldwide to assess, improve and certify their commitment to gender and intersectional equity.

Gender and intersectional equity have become pivotal to modern business success, enhancing employee engagement, boosting trust among stakeholders and contributing to sustainable growth. EDGE Certification, launched at the World Economic Forum in 2011, is the leading global standard for evaluating and improving workplace diversity, equity and inclusion practices. This certification assesses organizations across four key pillars: representation, pay equity, career flows and cultural inclusiveness. Through our EDGE Certification services, organizations can ensure their policies reflect a genuine commitment to creating inclusive workplaces.

"EDGE Certification is a vital tool for organizations striving to lead in diversity, equity and inclusion," said Neil Willings, Head of Sustainability & Supply Chain Services at SGS.
