Carbon Reduction Plan

Supplier name: Rise Technical Recruitment 2023

Publication date: 1st December 2023

Commitment to achieving Net Zero

Rise Technical Recruitment Ltd is committed to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.

Rise recognise that we have a responsibility to the environment beyond legal and regulatory requirements. We are committed to reducing our environmental impact and continually improving our environmental performance as an integral part of our business strategy and operating methods, with regular review points. We will encourage customers, suppliers and other stakeholders to do the same. We are aiming to achieve the government carbon net zero 2050 target. Net zero means any emissions would be balanced by schemes to offset an equivalent amount of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, such as planting trees or using technology like carbon capture and storage.

Baseline Emissions Footprint

Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions. Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.

Current Emissions Reporting

Scope 1:

• Optimise energy efficiency in our facilities: Implement energy-efficient lighting, HVAC systems, and equipment.

• Switch to renewable energy sources: Increase our reliance on renewable energy sources for electricity and heating.

Scope 2:

• Source 100% renewable electricity: Sign power purchase agreements with renewable energy providers.

Scope 3:

• Reduce business travel emissions: Encourage virtual meetings, promote remote work options, and adopt sustainable travel practices.

• Optimize supply chain operations: Collaborate with suppliers to reduce their GHG emissions and source sustainable materials.

• Invest in circular economy initiatives: Reduce waste generation and promote the reuse and recycling of materials.

We project that carbon emissions will decrease over the next five years to 290 tCO2e by 2028. This is a reduction of 50%
