Quantification of corruption in preventative cost-based S-LCA: a contribution to the Oiconomy project.

Purpose: Corruption is one of the key social aspects, heavily impacting all three Planet-, People- and Prosperity sustainability pillars and is therefore essential to be included in S-LCA. The objective of this article is to consider the available options to quantify corruption in preventative cost-based S-LCA, and to make a first proposal for quantification.

Methods: Literature was investigated on potential S-LCA assessment methods of corruption.
