Net Zero

In order to achieve this goal, the company plans to reach a 12% absolute reduction in emissions by 2025 (from 2021 baseline levels) and work up to a 94% absolute reduction in emissions by 2045. Its ESG policy also includes initiatives such as the adoption of a hybrid and remote working policy, the shift to more energy efficient offices in 2023, a recycling programme, an undertaking to drive sustainability in the supply chain, and the move to paperless working.
