GRI reports are used for internal benchmarking purposes and public
disclosure. GRI recommends that companies set up a reporting cycle — a program
of data collection on environmental and social impacts of the organization,
internal and external communication, and responses. A reporting cycle allows
firms to monitor their performance on an ongoing basis. This information is and
then made public.
