UK SRS Decoded: What It Means and How to Prepare

The UK Sustainability Reporting Standards are here. Is your business ready?

The UK Sustainability Reporting Standards (UK SRS) mark a shift in how sustainability reporting is expected to function in the UK, moving beyond climate-only guidance toward structured standards that sit alongside—and are held to the same rigour as—financial reporting.

For many organisations, this raises fundamental questions about data quality, governance, and how sustainability and finance functions need to work together. In this session, Zevero's experts give you a clear understanding of what UK SRS means operationally and how to use the current voluntary period to build readiness before formal requirements come into force.

‍

What you'll learn:

• What the UK SRS actually requires and how it differs from the UK's previous TCFD-aligned approach and the global ISSB standards
• The compliance timeline: what's proposed to become mandatory, what's comply-or-explain, and when
• Where organisations are most likely to face challenges, from Scope 3 data quality to internal ownership 
• Practical next steps to prioritise over the next 3–6 months to prepare 

‍

Whether you're just beginning your gap assessment or already working toward first disclosure, this session will give you the clarity and confidence to move forward.
