The platform includes a network of different types of organisation, brought together with a common aim: to act together to achieve a more sustainable economy and society. <\/p>\n Better Benelux works directly with B Lab Benelux and belongs to the The Shift network.<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”How long does it take to become a B Corp ?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n The timing varies from company to company as it depends on the organisation\u2019s complexity, structure and current performance. This is a substantial process, which is not designed to be fast.<\/p>\n Here are the main steps of the standard process that give you a rough idea of the time it takes:<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”What are the scores of certified Belgian companies?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n One company isn\u2019t the same as another and each has a BIA of its own.<\/p>\n So, comparisons are misleading here. <\/p>\n Currently, Belgian B Corps are posting a score of between 80.3 et 131. If you would like to see the list of Belgian B Corps and their score, get in touch with us!<\/p>\n The highest score recorded worldwide is currently around 180 points!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”Which areas do companies most commonly need to improve on to reach 80 points in the BIA?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n There is no straight answer to this: every company has its strengths and weaknesses. <\/p>\n However, we have noticed that the areas most companies should focus on are the following:<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”How much does the certification cost?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n B Lab\u2019s fees are:<\/p>\n These costs range from EUR 2,000 per year for a turnover of less than EUR 2,49M and gradually increase afterwards.<\/p>\n The certification costs only cover part of B Lab\u2019s operating costs: 40% of B Lab\u2019s expenses are covered by philanthropy, the rest comes from sources of revenue, including B Corp certification.<\/p>\n Note that large companies have additional costs to pay.<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”B Lab compares companies scores with each other: how is this benchmark built?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n B Lab enables you to compare your score with that of other comparable companies in terms of size (number of employees), sector and country. Companies who have completed a set number of questions, whether or not they are a B Corp, form part of the comparison.<\/p>\n Each reference index is the median of the scores of the companies comparable with yours and who have answered over 75% of the full questionnaire, over 75% of the questions of a pillar or sub-pillar, depending on the benchmark you are analysing.<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”Do B Corps publish their score?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n All B Corps certified companies are required to share their score on their <\/span>public profile<\/a> <\/span>and the scores per pillar (governance, workers, community, environment and customers). <\/p>\n The B Corp mindset is transparency. B Lab invites us to overcome our somewhat conservative instincts and adopt a constructive attitude towards transparency and what it generates: responsibility and authenticity.<\/p>\n We have the list of Belgian B Corps and their overall score available for you: send us an email<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”What is the BIA?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n The B Impact Assessment is a free, confidential online tool for improving your social impact and your environmental impact. Covering around 200 questions, this assessment is tailored: the questionnaire is adapted to your organisation and your sector. It examines the impact your companies have on your stakeholders (workers, community, environment and customers). It also captures and assesses the good practice you have implemented in relation to your mission and your governance. Today this is best way to understand where your company stands in CSR terms and how to improve its positive impact in the future.<\/p>\n This is also the best way of (re)creating meaning among your team by involving them in the process. Working collaboratively allows you to infuse your team with the values of each member and make it collectively responsible for a \u201cwhy\u201d.<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”What type of organisation is eligible for B Corp certification?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n Your company must be a non-profit and have been in operation for over a year (the BIA uses the data from previous years for the assessment ). <\/p>\n Your company may operate in any sector, and be of any size. <\/p>\n B Corps certification is not accessible to ASBLs, NGOs, public bodies or any other entity that is state-controlled.<\/p>\n Having said that, the BIA is a free tool you can take advantage of: it\u2019s a yardstick for measuring and improving your impact. If your company has been in operation for less than 12 months, you can opt for <\/span>B Corp \u201cpending\u201d<\/a> status, which allows your company in the start-up phase to send a message to stakeholders that you are on course to obtain the B Corps certification.<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”Is it more difficult for large companies to obtain certification?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n The BIA is designed to suit all organisations eligible for certification, whatever their size, their location or their sector of activity.<\/p>\n A major difficulty we have noted is in defining the company\u2019s scope and, thus, determining which questionnaire is the right one. This is vital. If the wrong questionnaire is chosen, the company will have to start again once they get to the assessment phase. <\/p>\n The BIA is adapted according to three criteria: <\/p>\n The track the company is on will determine both the type of questions and its points weighting in the BIA. The assessment is adapted to calibrate the same level of difficulty for each company in accordance with its path. Indeed, large companies tend to have more questions with a lower score value and small companies will have less questions, but with a higher score weighting.<\/p>\n ” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_faq_child][dsm_faq_child dsm_title=”So if my company is part of a group, do the parent company and all the subsidiaries also have to be certified? Together or separately?” dsm_content=”<\/p>\n The parent company must accompany you on your B Corp journey as it is involved in changing your company\u2019s articles of association, which requires the approval of your shareholders. <\/p>\n The guiding principle is that the group as a whole enters into the process: the links between companies make the process more cohesive, as together you have more power to manage your impact and influence society.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, there are several B Corps in the community that are 100% subsidiaries: they have demonstrated that they are different and independent. We often find that they then encourage and help their ecosystems to follow them. <\/p>\n
