Abstract
the assessment of social impacts of products got together under a round table initiative from
the authors. This has led to the development of a joined but modular approach, allowing
companies to adjust the proposed assessment method to their needs. The main achievements
are the alignment on common principles, the development of an overall framework and the
alignment of social topics and indicators.
