What is social return?

Social return is a contract condition in public contracts, such as tenders and procurement processes. It means that contractors reserve a set percentage of the contract value to create employment for people distanced from the labour market. This initiative encourages labour participation and is part of wider corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts. It falls within the framework of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and offers organisations the opportunity to contribute to an inclusive and sustainable society.
