Frequently Asked Questions

Participating members join at one of three membership levels.

Participating Non-Industrial Member (Level 1) is for nonindustrial entities that wish to work to improve their social or environmental performance, and seek membership within SAC to assist them in these efforts.

Participating Industrial Member (Levels 2-3) is the industrial/commercial category that is further divided into two tiers: Level 2 and Level 3.

Alliance Members

The Alliance category is open to states, academic institutions, social investment companies and environmental/social advocacy organizations, at no fee. Note: Environmental and social advocacy involves both protecting people and the natural world. Advocates organize a group around a cause and work to implement changes that have a lasting and positive effect. Alliance Members commit to actively work with Participating Members to further the goals of the organization.  While there is no fee for Alliance Members, Alliance Members commit to participate on a work group and donate their time to assist in the meeting of SAC’s organizational goals.
