How it works
When you first log into your Good Measures dashboard, keep these basic navigation details in mind:
1. Invite and account creation
Sign up to get started with Good Measures. A Good On You brand support manager will get in touch about an invite. Alternatively, one of Good On You's retailer partners may have invited you to use the tool as part of your engagement with them.
2. Explore your rating
The three pillars (planet, people, animals) are broken down into key sustainability issues organised into focus areas. Each issue contains a series of questions and fixed answer options that assess performance on the issue. If you have a current Good On You rating, data from that rating will be imported when you start, so you can understand what is driving your current score and rating.

Non-discriminatory access to Good On You's Sustainability Label Scheme
A defining feature of Good On You's rating system — which distinguishes it from conventional certification schemes — is that brands do not apply for or commission their ratings. Good On You initiates ratings based on consumer interest, commercial demand, or customer requests. This means that brands cannot prevent themselves from being rated simply by declining to participate, and that the Good On You Sustainability Label Scheme's non-discrimination commitments are built into the structure of the system rather than being merely aspirational.
Good Measures is a tool to navigate, track, and improve your sustainability journey. When you submit data for review each answer must be supported by clear, credible and publicly available evidence. The standard and process of verifying each data point against that evidence is the same for any brand rated by Good On You. The draft score in Good Measures is based on the same methodology and scoring logic used for all ratings. The published rating after review will reflect the data that Good On You ratings analysts can verify, referring to submission data as well as their standard search for relevant sources. A brand's choice to engage with Good Measures does not determine the outcome of its rating.
