Kemper has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The company does not currently report on Scope 3 emissions, which limits its overall emissions transparency. All emissions data is sourced directly from Kemper Corporation, with no cascaded data from parent or related organizations. Kemper's emissions per employee were reported at approximately 7 kg CO2e in 2023, while emissions per kg of finished products were about 9,460 kg CO2e. In 2022, these figures were significantly higher, with emissions per employee at approximately 69 kg CO2e and per kg of finished products at about 8,800 kg CO2e. Overall, while Kemper has made strides in emissions reporting, the lack of reduction targets and comprehensive Scope 3 data indicates room for improvement in its climate strategy.
