Welcome to the new website of the Transparency Benchmark, where you can find all the available scores for recent years. Our user-friendly interface lets you compare data, click through to annual reports, where available, and distribute data quickly and easily.
If you have any comments, questions or corrections concerning the information on this website, or the Transparency Benchmark, please contact us at Transparantiebenchmark@minez.nl.
Scores and categories
The national scores for 2004 to 2010 inclusive can be found here. To provide a historical overview of trends, the scores for 2004 to 2009 are linked by means of statistical comparison. As radical changes were made to the criteria in 2010 and it took longer to determine the definitive scores for the year, the 2010 scores cannot yet be statistically linked to previous years. As a result, scores can be higher than 100, up to a maximum of 200 points. In addition, the 2009 category headings have generally been retained, but, where statistical comparison is possible between the scores for 2010 and 2009, we use the 2010 category headings.
Companies included in our permanent research group also have access to the national company and sector comparisons. Companies that have completed a self-assessment also have access to international sector comparisons.

- Company name: Often the trade name is used on the website, since, for PR reasons, companies prefer not to use older or obsolete company names. This means that any scores from previous years are shown under this trade name. For technical reasons and for clarity, it is not advisable to use a different company name for different years.
