This approach enables businesses to enhance their ESG initiatives, meet sustainability goals, and stay compliant with evolving regulations while achieving cost savings.
An Offshore ESG and Sustainability Center (OESC) is a strategic move for companies looking to strengthen their sustainability efforts, reduce their environmental impact, and improve their governance practices. Doorstep specializes in establishing OESCs in developing countries, ensuring a seamless integration of ESG and sustainability operations into your business strategy.
WHY YOUR COMPANY NEEDS AN OESC
The global demand for sustainability and responsible corporate behavior is on the rise. Companies are increasingly held accountable for their environmental footprint, social responsibility, and governance practices. However, managing these initiatives can be resource-intensive. An OESC provides a cost-effective solution to handle ESG activities, reduce operational costs, and stay ahead of regulatory demands.
Cost Reduction: By setting up an OESC in a developing country, businesses can significantly lower operational costs related to staffing, technology, and office infrastructure. The lower cost of living and wages in these regions helps businesses maintain an effective ESG program at a fraction of the cost.
Access to Specialized ESG Talent: Doorstep connects companies with a global pool of sustainability experts, environmental analysts, and governance specialists skilled in international ESG frameworks and reporting standards such as GRI, SASB, and TCFD. These experts can help businesses develop, manage, and report their ESG initiatives.
Scalability and Flexibility: The OESC model provides businesses with the flexibility to scale their ESG and sustainability efforts based on demand and evolving regulations. Whether expanding sustainability programs or adjusting to new compliance requirements, Doorstep ensures agility in your approach.
Alignment with Corporate Strategy: By outsourcing ESG functions to an OESC, companies can focus on their core business objectives while ensuring that their sustainability and governance practices remain in line with global standards and stakeholder expectations. Doorstep guarantees seamless integration of the offshore team into your operations, ensuring transparency and alignment with your sustainability goals.
