The Good Corporation (www.goodcorporation.com) has been set up with improving CSR for SMEs:

"The company is committed to championing corporate responsibility and provides resources and a transparent process of verification to organisations, especially SMEs which can be put off by bureaucratic procedures that may seem inappropriate or unnecessary."

"A GoodCorporation is an organisation that has committed to good corporate behaviour and has passed the GoodCorporation verification. The verification
covers fairness to employees, customers, suppliers, providers of funding, environmental protection and contribution to the community.

Verfication is based on the GoodCorporation charter. The charter has 21 statements that are backed up by items of concrete evidence. Each applicant must provide this evidence to the satisfaction of an independent verifier.

The charter is designed to be applicable not just to businesses, but all types of organisation including charities, public bodies, non-governmental
organisations and associations. It also gives small businesses an equal opportunity to large businesses to demonstrate their corporate citizenship."
