YIT Oyj provides only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. It signals alignment with the Climate Leadership Coalition and voices support for “the EU’s climate targets” and the broader green transition, but it does not identify any concrete pieces of legislation, regulations or formal consultations it has sought to influence. The company speaks generally about collaborating with “suppliers, subcontractors, customers and other stakeholders” and about needing “the support of regulators, decision-makers and the EU,” yet it discloses no specific lobbying actions such as meetings, submissions or letters, nor does it name the governmental bodies or officials it approaches. Likewise, the outcomes it seeks are framed in broad terms—calling for “market-based and predictable conditions for low-carbon solutions” and “common, long-term regulation and indicators for how emissions are measured and reported”—without setting out the concrete policy changes, targets or amendments it is advocating. Together, these gaps mean readers receive only a general picture of intent rather than a transparent account of actual climate-policy lobbying activity.

YIT Oyj demonstrates a moderate governance approach to aligning its climate-related engagement by ensuring oversight of its indirect lobbying efforts through industry bodies. It notes that "YIT has representatives in relevant working groups and the board of the construction trade association Rakennusteollisuus Ry," where members "are from Group Management team or the sustainability team, both directly involved with the climate strategy creation," indicating an effort to align association positions with its climate goals. Furthermore, it confirms that "each major decision or statement on YIT's behalf is being consulted with the Group Management Team," establishing a formal review step for engagement activities. However, the company does not disclose a dedicated policy or procedure for monitoring direct governmental lobbying, nor does it name a specific individual or committee responsible solely for lobbying oversight, and it provides no criteria for assessing or adjusting its participation in associations against its climate commitments. This indicates that, while there is an internal sign-off mechanism and climate-strategy involvement in trade associations, the governance framework for broader lobbying practices remains limited and not fully transparent.
