Multiple Choice

Which item is NOT part of SASB's Five-Factor Test?

Five-Factor Test in SASB centers on financial materiality by looking through five lenses that connect sustainability topics to economic impact: direct financial impacts and risks; regulatory, legal, and policy drivers; market dynamics and demand; opportunities for innovation; and reputational or capital-market implications. Employee satisfaction sits in the realm of human capital and workforce management and doesn’t map to these five financial-materiality lenses. That’s why it isn’t part of the SASB Five-Factor Test. The other choices align with the test’s lenses: direct financial impacts and risks addresses earnings and asset implications, regulatory drivers cover how laws and policies affect costs or opportunities, and opportunities for innovation captures potential revenue or efficiency gains from addressing the topic.
