Abstract
Traditionally employed by businesses to disclose environmental, social, and economic performance, social reporting is finding a novel application within the justice system. Judicial office social reports unveil court performance and stakeholder experiences, but their potential extends further. Through meticulous analysis of social reports, valuable data concerning case flow, resolution rates, and processing times can be extracted. These reports serve as a rich source of information on judicial activity, offering insights into the efficiency of a particular office. Beginning with an overview of the evolution of social reporting in the Italian justice system, it is argued that it should be utilised as a valuable tool for both ex ante impact assessments and ex post evaluations of legislative changes. Social reports could represent the foundation for substantial change in this regard, at least in the field of justice. On the one hand, the data they provide can serve as a crucial starting point for understanding the needs of judicial offices; on the other hand, they can reflect the results achieved (or not achieved) following the implementation of legislative reforms.
