EarthRight Business Certification

EarthRight Business Certification is a sustainability certification program offered by the EarthRight Business Institute for organizations in Canada and the United States. It is designed to help businesses take a structured, step-by-step approach to improving their environmental practices while also strengthening their financial performance.

The program is built around three achievement levels — Silver, Gold, and Green — each representing a progressively deeper level of commitment, stakeholder engagement, and measurable impact reduction. This tiered structure allows organizations to start where they are and advance over time, rather than meeting a single all-or-nothing standard. Each level is intended to guide companies in building out a meaningful and credible sustainability program.

EarthRight Business Certification is well-suited for organizations in the environmental sector or those looking to formalize their sustainability efforts within a recognized framework. It provides a practical roadmap for companies that want to demonstrate environmental accountability to customers, partners, and other stakeholders.
