Organisations are increasingly adopting sustainability performance assessment tools. However,
these formal organisational sustainability assessments are typically managed and prepared by
technical staff. There is a lack of research on approaches that enable a stakeholder-driven
performance assessment. This paper develops a framework of informal/complementary
stakeholder-driven sustainability performance assessment, from the perspective of employee
voluntary collaboration. The framework composes a checklist of questions covering the main
sustainability domains: perceptions, individual practices, and voluntary monitoring indicators.
In an exploratory case study in a public organisation, the checklist was evaluated by employees
in a participatory workshop. The evaluation criteria of understanding and usefulness were rated
more positively than reliability. This paper shows a novel way of integrating employee inputs
for informal sustainability assessment and supports the importance of empowering public organisations,
thereby increasing their understanding of sustainability management frameworks.
