B Corp Certification assesses a business’ overall positive impact .

It’s validated by providing documentation and a series of interviews before a final score is provided.
Certified B Corporations must achieve a minimum verified score on the B Impact Assessment of more than 80 points—a rigorous assessment of a company’s impact on its workers, customers, community, and environment. Companies need to recertify every three years.
