Sustainability Data
Verizon seeks independent assurance for select sustainability-related data each year. Access the Independent Accountants' Review Reports here. For information that is not specifically identified as being independently assured, Verizon relies on the application of internal policies (including those requiring the creation and maintenance of accurate records and the establishment of internal controls over externally reported financial and non-financial information) and compliance with data quality standards and verification procedures set forth in our ESG information governance and controls frameworks to validate such information.
