A life cycle inventory was conducted to collect data for activity variables and compute Social Risk (SR), a measure of the risk of negative social impacts related to a reference (here the average European social conditions). Relevant social sustainability issues for pork production systems were identified through a literature search and a consultative workshop with experts. The objective was to assess the risk of negative social impacts for the production and consumption of 1000-kg pork (fork weight-bone free meat including cooking losses) originating from two different systems: organic and conventional pork production. This study examines the risk of negative social impacts in Swedish pork production systems and includes workers, farmers, consumers, local community, society, and pigs as stakeholders. The breath and complexity of social issues and lack of data makes the task challenging. Yet for pork, the most consumed meat product in Europe, there is no social life cycle assessment (S-LCA) in the literature. ![]() Sustainable animal food systems are increasingly important to society.
