UNITE Group PLC provides a brief statement suggesting it seeks to align its policy engagement with its climate objectives, noting that “All employees are aware of our net zero carbon targets including key employees engaged in engagement activities” and that “engagement with relevant trade associations is via members of the business who are actively involved in this area and aware of our strategy and approach.” It also adds that “Our Net Zero Carbon Pathway sets out our position on climate change… that are the basis of our position in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement,” indicating a declared intention to keep external engagement consistent with its climate strategy. However, the disclosure does not outline a formal governance framework: there is no description of specific oversight bodies or named individuals responsible for reviewing lobbying alignment, no explanation of how engagement activities are monitored or approved, and no evidence of a structured review of trade-association positions. Consequently, while the company signals an intention to align engagement with climate commitments, the process remains largely informal and lacks transparency regarding monitoring and accountability mechanisms.
