This figure includes significant contributions from purchased goods and services (about 144,987,000 kg CO2e), employee commuting (approximately 11,091,000 kg CO2e), and waste generated in operations (around 3,934,000 kg CO2e). For the global context in 2023, Persol's Scope 1 emissions were about 18,639,000 kg CO2e, while Scope 2 emissions totalled approximately 6,596,000 kg CO2e (market-based). The combined Scope 1 and 2 emissions reached about 25,235,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, Persol has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction commitments suggests a need for further transparency regarding their climate strategies. Overall, Persol's emissions data highlights the significant impact of their operations, particularly in Scope 3, and underscores the importance of establishing clear climate commitments moving forward.
