Faced with a blank canvas when the human capital reporting rule was initially announced, many companies struggled to define what information to disclose, the length and detail of the disclosures, and how to include quantitative metrics. The vagueness of the rule and lack of definitions caused many companies to avoid disclosing too little, or too much.
Given the potential for increased investor scrutiny and ongoing regulatory interpretation, it’s natural to conclude that the disclosures will continue to evolve and be refined, with greater adoption of leading practices. Join us in this engaging and interactive discussion as we discuss some of the key considerations that companies should focus on for future reporting and disclosures, such as:
- Assessing current human capital risk disclosures vs. future disclosure requirements
- Identifying potential disclosure gaps along with recommendations for adjustments
- Selecting the metrics and reporting standards that will satisfy regulators and investors
- Evaluating and deploying the changes required to easily access required data, calculate the metrics, and disclose the results
- Linking human capital disclosures to business strategy and results
