Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures

In order to encourage companies to increase their disclosure of climate related information, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) published recommendations and provided a framework for doing so – focused on governance, opportunities and strategies to manage climate-related risks and transition to a low-carbon future.

Our priority over the last 12 months has been to develop our new Environment Action Plan and 2040 vision.

This, together with specialist workstreams and targets, has been discussed and agreed by the Board, and we have now begun to implement country-level operational-based environment plans.

As part of this process, Rentokil Initial is committed to implementing the recommendations of the TCFD. This year, we have taken the first step to integrating these requirements into our Annual Report and Responsible Business Report.

Rentokil Initial already responds to the Carbon Disclosure Project and is a member of the Dow Jones Sustainability (European Leader’s) Index. The Company is rated ‘Low ESG Risk’ by Sustainalytics, Prime rated by ISS ESG (with a decile rank of 1 indicating a high relative ESG performance) and ‘AA’ by MSCI for ESG. In 2020, Vigeo Eiris ranked Rentokil Initial 1st out of 99 for ESG in the Business Services category.
