Our next guest has partnered with the World Benchmarking Alliance and launched a report that assessed 180 globally influential companies on the interventions they are making towards a lower carbon footprint. The report also assessed the role they play when it comes to respecting workers’ rights and the environmental impact to communities.

The report looks at companies from the following industries: oil and gas, electric utilities, automotive and manufacturing. The report has outlined that without concerted effort to bring people along as part of the decarbonisation transformation, it isn’t just workers and local communities that will suffer and be left behind.
