Explore GBC accreditation

Good Business Charter accreditation is a simple and effective way to show customers, employees and other stakeholders that you’re a good business to buy from and work with.

Accreditation process

Our aim is to recognise and celebrate every organisation in the UK that meets the requirements for all ten Good Business Charter components (or nine for public or third-sector organisations).

If your organisation meets all of the components, you should be rightly proud and get the recognition you deserve.

Committing to all the Good Business Charter components is a considerable achievement, so we make the application process simple. Accreditation is completely free, open to all organisations and the application takes less than an hour to complete. Organisations typically receive accreditation within a week.

1. Answers yes to the questions that confirm your commitment to the Good Business Charter’s components.

2. Share a few short examples of how your organisation puts the components into practice.

3. Celebrate your achievement and proudly display the GBC accredition stamp!
