If you’re starting to think about your scope 3 emissions reporting for the coming year, we can lend a helping hand when it comes to calculating employee commuting emissions, or even business travel. The nature of these mean they are more of a headache than some of the other elements of emissions reporting, but a comprehensive and targeted survey tool, using a good framework, can make things easier for employees and the sustainability team alike.
We have already developed a tool for those in Higher Education needing to do HESA reporting, but this can be adapted for organisations in other sectors wanting to do this as part of their ESG reporting, net zero or corporate governance reporting obligations. Watch this two minute video for a brief explanation.
