SOCA: How would you proceed, to do a social hotspot analysis?

Question

Hello,
for a social hotspot analysis, which results are better to be used from SOCA?
Is it the impact analysis or social assessment? I would assume the impact analysis - has there been procedures, in order to combine the results to gather the most important impact categories or other approaches?

Thank you and all the best,

Kathi

Hello Kathi
Both impact assessment and social assessment tabs are important to look at. I am assuming you are looking at soca v4 so impact assessment shows all the impact categories which represent each social indicator in medium risk hours. Social assessment give you further details on how each social indicator per process along the supply chain is being evaluate at what risk level. 
I recommend chapter 2.7.2 in PSILCA manual to learn more openLCA Nexus: The source for LCA data sets
 

Kind regards.
