ACE’s “organizational health” criterion is described here and they wrote a blog post about it here. tl;dr is that they have a checklist of various policies and also survey staff, then combine this into a rating on dimensions like “Harassment and discrimination policies”.
As an example of it in action, see the 2022 review of Vegetarianos Hoy:
A few staff (1–3 individuals) report that they have experienced harassment or discrimination at their workplace during the last 12 months, and a few (1–3 individuals) report to have witnessed harassment or discrimination of others in that period. In particular, they report low recognition of others’ work and low salaries. All of the claimants reported that the situation was not handled appropriately...
Vegetarianos Hoy’s leadership team recognizes reported issues and reports that they have taken steps to resolve them. In particular, they report they are aware of alleged issues and have hired a Culture and Talent Analyst position and two new leadership positions.
I think OP also deserves a lot of the credit, but I am not aware of anything publicly written to describe what they have done.
