Environment, Social and Governance management

The meaning of ESG to KYOS

KYOS is committed to doing business in a manner that positively impacts the environment and respects the interests of the people directly or indirectly affected by its operations. ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) describes how companies deal with their direct and indirect impact on the environment, their workforce and other stakeholders. Below are some examples of how KYOS gives substance to its ESG management.

Our 10% pledge

We promise to use 10% of our net profit to support causes that improve the wellbeing of people and the planet. See kyos.com/charity.

Reducing greenhouse gases

Our commitment is to reduce our scopes 1 (gas consumption in the office) and scope 2 emissions (power consumption in the office) in 2030 by 80% as compared to the baseline of 0.77 tCO₂ equivalent per employee (average over period 2017-2019). Our unaudited figures for 2023 show a 73% reduction to 0.21 tCO₂ equivalent per employee.

Carbon offset

In situations where greenhouse gases cannot be avoided, we offset our emissions by purchasing CO₂ allowances from the market. By doing this, we effectively reduce the number of available CO₂ allowances that can be used by other companies. Download our CO2 certificate.
