Below you will find the 3 KPIs that will allow you to get an initial representation of your environmental sustainability performance.
1. Calculation of Scope 1 and 2 emissions.
Quantifying direct (Scope 1) and indirect emissions related to the production of purchased energy (Scope 2) allows the company to identify the main sources of emissions within its operations. This tracking is essential for identifying where to take action to reduce environmental impacts by setting evidence-based reduction targets.
2. Energy from renewable sources.
Powering business operations from alternative sources as opposed to fossil fuels means greatly decreasing one's environmental impact and in many cases securing significant savings.
3. Emission trends.
Analyzing the company's progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the short term allows the company to verify the achievement of any reduction targets and assess the impact of implemented initiatives.

2. Turnover rate (or personal turnover rate).
Indicates the company's ability to retain staff through internal policies that encourage staff retention; for example, through the presence of team-building activities, as well as the company's ability to identify staff in line with business needs.
3. Net Promoter Score.

How to evaluate governance performance: the 3 KPIs
From corporate policies to the distribution of rights and responsibilities, the G in ESG takes into account all governance factors. Even in this area, there are several aspects that a company can implement to improve its performance and establish a positive and lasting approach.
Below are the 3 KPIs to evaluate your governance performance.
1. Transparency and reporting.
This is a useful indicator to promote a sense of responsibility to the company, encouraging it to continuously monitor and improve its sustainability practices and forcing it to be accountable for the consequences of its activities, securing a better reputation.
2. Diversity rate in board composition.
Refers to the extent to which the board is composed of members with diverse characteristics, such as gender, ethnicity, professional background, skills, etc.
A diverse board better reflects the diversity of the company's workforce and customers, promoting greater representation and inclusion. Diversity leads to a variety of perspectives and experiences, resulting in more informed and efficient decisions.
3. Risk management update.
The environment in which companies operate is constantly changing: economic, political, technological, social and environmental changes can have a direct impact on business operations and performance. This is why it is essential to regularly update risk management.
Identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks that can adversely affect the business on a regular basis enables faster response to threats and crises, limiting the extent of damage and reducing the potential negative impact on business sustainability.
