I was fairly engaged in the development of ISO 26000 when I lived in Sweden in 2007. The standard is now out and it is good to see that GRI and ISO are working to show linkage. In the long run we don't need to have multiple standards for reporting causing industry confusion. Personally I still feel that ISO missed out on an opportunity to define "sustainability" and become the go to place for that definition...but that's another story...
"GRI has published a linkage document that explains how the GRI Guidelines can be used in conjunction with ISO 26000, new guidance on social responsibility that was launched on 1 November 2010.
This publication helps to relate the Social Responsibility (SR) guidance in ISO 26000 to reporting guidance provided by GRI. In particular, this publication aims to help companies and other organizations that follow the GRI Guidelines to prepare their reports, understand how GRI reporting aspects and indicators are related to ISO 26000 clauses."
