  Fighting climate change

  Atos is a global leader in decarbonised digital services incorporating sustainable practices into our IT services to mitigate against the impact of climate change. This is evidenced by our EcoVadis Platinum Award. We are committed to an SBTi endorsed Science Based Target and are on track to reduce all emissions by 50% between 2019-25 and achieve Net Zero by 2039. Activities to achieve this include: IT Products and Services: We place a 20% sustainability weighting during procurement and use EcoVadis to assess supplier environmental performance. We were awarded “Platinum” status by EcoVadis for the fourth year running in October 2023. Renewable Energy Sources: Since 2018, the electricity purchased for our IT equipment, lighting and some space heating in mainland Great Britain has been from 100% renewable sources. Reduce Energy Consumption: Initiatives include the adoption of remote/hybrid working for employees, leading to a 10% drop in Atos UK&I energy usage between H1 2022 and H1 2023 through the rationalisation of 15 offices. In 2020, we signed up to a group-wide car-fleet agreement to source only electric vehicles with the aim to switch our entire fleet to electric or hybrid by 2025 (70% achievement in 2022). Minimise Electronic Waste: Atos has a circular economy approach to minimise electronic waste and extend the lifespan of its IT equipment ensuring that 100% of our obsolete IT assets are collected, reused, or recycled in a responsible way. The policy approach is based on the ISO14001 certified management system. In the UK we partner with Tier1, an SME specialising in hardware recycling.
