EDGE Standards and Certification
EDGE Certification is the leading global standard for diversity, fairness, and inclusion, centred on a workplace gender and intersectional equity approach. The Standards – EDGE (gender-binary) and EDGEplus (gender and intersectionality) – offer a holistic framework against which organizations can measure where they stand in terms of gender and intersectional equity. The framework consists of requirements and specifications against which conformance is audited by an independent third-party leading to EDGE Certification.
