Workforce Employment Solutions Ltd
Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP)
For the financial year ending 31 December 2024
Policy Context
The UK Government amended the Climate Change Act 2008 in 2019, committing to a 100% reduction in net UK greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 (compared to 1990 levels).
In line with PPN 06/21, Central Government Departments, Executive Agencies, and Non-Departmental Public Bodies must ensure that suppliers to contracts valued at £5 million+ per year (excl. VAT) are committed to achieving Net Zero by 2050.
Workforce Employment Solutions Ltd confirms its commitment to achieving Net Zero by 2050.
