The Scope 3 emissions for that year were notably high, driven by purchased goods and services (288,657,000 kg CO2e). Persol has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as per the latest data, and there are no climate pledges reported. The emissions data is not cascaded from a parent company, indicating that these figures are independently reported by Persol Holdings Co., Ltd. Overall, while Persol's emissions are substantial, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments moving forward.
