01 Purpose, Governance & Ethics
Why the organisation exists, who decides, and how decisions are held to account.
Understand where you are. See where you can go.
How sustainable is your organisation — really?
Sustainability isn't a policy on a shelf. It's how your organisation makes decisions, treats people, manages its impact and prepares for the future.
The BOXLESS Impact & Sustainability Assessment helps you understand what you're already doing, where the gaps are and where to focus next.
Start your assessment No expectation that you are already “sustainable”.
What you get
A maturity score, an evidence score, and a clear view of what to do next.

- Indicative alignment with the current B Lab standards
- UK and EU requirements that may be relevant to you

30–45 minutes
Most organisations answer between 65 and 90 questions.
Save and return
Your answers save as you go. Come back whenever you need to.
Questions adapt
You only see what is relevant to how your organisation actually operates.
Evidence, optional
Upload documents where you have them. Nothing is invented on your behalf.
Six pillars, one honest picture
We look at what you do, how deeply it is embedded, and how confidently it can be substantiated. Having a policy is a beginning — not a score.
02 People, Fair Work & Inclusion
Pay, voice, safety, development and who genuinely gets to belong and progress.
03 Climate & Carbon
Measurement, targets, energy, transport and how climate risk is governed.
04 Environment, Resources & Circularity
Waste, packaging, materials, nature and the systems that manage them.
05 Supply Chain, Human Rights & Community
The impact beyond your walls — suppliers, human rights and community.
06 Accountability, Impact & Leadership
Whether sustainability is embedded, measured, evidenced and improving.
