iso 26000 - social responsibility management system (srms)

ISO 26000:2010 is an international standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that provides guidance on social responsibility.  This standard is not a certification standard like some other ISO standards, but rather a set of guidelines and recommendations to help organizations, regardless of their size or type, integrate social responsibility into their operations and decision-making processes.
