The Task force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) has been created upon the request of the G20 leaders. It aims to encourage companies and organizations to communicate in a transparent manner on the financial risks linked to climate, in order to help investors to integrate them in their decisions.
In 2017, the TCFD published a set of recommendations to encourage a consistent and reliable financial reporting based on 4 pillars: governance, strategy, measure and objectives, as well as risk management.

In accordance with the European Union (EU) regulation 2020/852 of June 18, 2020 and its delegated acts (referred to as the “Taxonomy” regulation), Sodexo is required to publish, for Fiscal 2022, performance indicators that highlight the proportion of its eligible revenues, investments (CapEx), and operating expenditure (OpEx) associated with economic activities considered to be sustainable within the meaning of this regulation and its delegated acts for the first two climate-related targets regarding climate change mitigation and adaption(1).
The methodology elements on the basis of which the Group based its analysis – definitions, assumptions, and estimates – are described below.
The financial information used to conduct this initial analysis was subject to self-assessment by country teams and additional reporting as part of the year-end closing. The indicators were reviewed and analyzed jointly by Corporate Responsibility and Finance teams, and supported by third-party experts, in order to ensure consistency of the decisions regarding eligibility and consistency with Fiscal 2022 consolidated revenue, investments and operating expenses.
Corporate responsibility has always been at the heart of our mission and everything we do. Despite limited Taxonomy-eligible activities today, we are convinced that our services bring positive impact to our employees, consumers, clients, suppliers, and shareholders. For details on our Corporate Responsibility approach, please refer to chapter 2 of the Universal Registration Document.
