GREEN LEAF ECO STANDARD
Updated 22 days ago
The GLES is defined by a modular structure which is specific to each relevant business sector (e.g. GLES 101 for Tourism, GLES 102 for Business, GLES 104 for Manufacturing, etc.). For each sector, certification comprises three Spheres of Influence: an initial CORE phase, followed by RESPONSIBLE and RESTORATIVE phases. The initial CORE phase establishes the basic requirements for sustainability certification, and is a prerequisite for both the RESPONSIBLE and RESTORATIVE phases.

The requirements of the GLES were established by a Technical Committee of sustainability experts in industry and academia. The custodians of the GLES are the Green Leaf Environmental Trust, who manage the technical review of the Standard through appointment of a Technical Committee and also review the suitability of GLES Accredited Facilities.
