More detail:

What is World Civility Index?

This Index is somewhat similar to a person’s credit rating, but instead of measuring how well a person can pay his bills, it measures a person’s manners! Qualities like business etiquette, empathy, intercultural awareness.

The concept is that job-seekers can get the credential based on the World Civility Index, as proof, to show to employers everywhere.

From an employer’s point of view, they get to raise company culture simply by requesting job-applicants to have this credential, before coming on board.

In addition, having a neutral, third-party measurement for a company’s civility level can positively affect their ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) ratings. （ESG ratings are important to financial analysts and investors in deciding which company to invest in.）

In other words, the “Index” can do good for the company culture, raise their ESG rating, and good for society at the same time. Feeding three birds with one seed!
