Lobbying Governance

Overall Assessment	Analysis	Score
Limited	Sumitomo Mitsui Construction has a structured sustainability governance framework—"Under the supervision of the Board of Directors, the Sustainability Promotion Committee chaired by the Representative Director President & CEO deliberates on sustainability measures" and "we have established sustainability promotion organizations in each division and created a cross-organizational SX Promotion Project led by the General Manager of the Corporate Planning Division (Managing Executive Officer)"—which is geared toward identifying and managing climate-related risks "under the 1.5°C to 2°C and 4°C scenarios." The company also affirms it has "a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement." However, we found no evidence of any specific policy, review process, or monitoring procedure for lobbying activities—direct or through trade associations—nor any named individual or formal body dedicated to overseeing lobbying alignment with its climate objectives. This indicates that while sustainability measures are well-established, lobbying governance is not disclosed. View Sources	D
