Compiling the report’s content
Scope and standard
GRI 102-50
The statements in this Sustainability Report generally relate to the whole Group. However, the scope is naturally more limited for some of the reported topics. If data or statements relate only to individual divisions or countries, this is explicitly mentioned in the text and charts.
GRI 102-54, GRI 102-56
This report has been prepared in accordance with the GRI Standards: Core option. The report takes into account of the sector-specific requirements set out in the “GRI Construction and Real Estate Sector Disclosures”. The content has been compiled with the greatest possible care, but has not been externally audited.
GRI 102-52, 102-51
Implenia has continuously reported on sustainability topics on this web platform since 2018. Metrics and information about new projects and initiatives are continually updated. The company makes a thorough revision of all content every two years. Readers thus always have an up-to-date picture of the Group’s sustainability efforts. For environmental reasons we do not produce a printed version.
Determining the main topics
GRI 102-46
Implenia’s Sustainability Department is responsible for the company’s global sustainability reporting. Working closely with the Sustainability Committee, relevant central departments and divisions, it defines the main content of the strategy and the reporting in accordance with the Group’s five sustainability priorities. The choice of subjects to include was also determined by a materiality analysis based on the Sustainable Development Goals, and by an event involving Implenia’s internal and external stakeholders. The Global Reporting Initiative’s qualitative reporting principles informed the editing of the text, and all content was subject to final review and approval by the Group’s Sustainability Committee.
Principles of greenhouse gas reporting
GRI 102-10
Reporting of greenhouse gas emissions accords with the internationally established Greenhouse Gas Protocol Standard. In 2019 Implenia extended its collection of CO2 data from Switzerland to Germany, Austria/Romania, France Norway and Sweden. All home markets are therefore covered.
Around 60% of the data is based on verified figures from the Group’s SAP invoice workflow. Half of the rest comes from our own additional collection of data from production facilities, and the other half from reporting by partner companies such as leasing partners.
GRI 103-2
Implenia calculates greenhouse gas emissions using the “operational control” approach. Emissions from all operations managed by Implenia are entirely attributed to the company regardless of its financial participation. Emissions from all leased and rented assets (properties, vehicles, machinery, etc.) are also treated as Scope 1 and 2 emissions accordingly.
