Sustainability

Mandatory sustainability reporting in financial statements is currently only required for large organisations. Smaller entities can make the most of exemptions from carbon reporting at present however they should be mindful that they are not sheltered from the changes in stakeholder choice and the questions which may be asked by those with whom they wish to work.

Albert Goodman have launched Sustainability Reporting as part of our standard services having produced Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reports for our clients. These reports set out the scope 1 & scope 2 carbon emissions of a business and also include commentary on the organisations plans to reduce this in the future.

Organisations who are starting to consider their impact on the planet and are looking to set Net Zero targets may wish to engage such services, not for the purpose of reporting in their financial statements (although this is always an option!) but to start them off on their carbon reduction
