Reflecting the importance of these topics and our focus on them, Eurofins' Board of Directors expanded the scope and duties of the Corporate Governance Committee to include the scrutiny of environmental and social matters relevant to the Group and its stakeholders to become the Sustainability and Corporate Governance Committee. Alongside this committee, an executive-level sustainability committee has been established (the Executive Sustainability Committee) to provide an operational framework for the delivery of these key initiatives. [...] In addition, in September 2021, an Executive Sustainability Committee was established to review, implement and deliver critical aspects of our ESG initiatives. The Committee is comprised of eight members, including Group Operating Council (GOC) leaders and Senior Managers covering both operational and functional areas of Group activities. The Executive Sustainability Committee has responsibility for: - Facilitating the delivery of our ESG Roadmap, including expanding reporting of KPIs - Oversight of Project Owners' data collection efforts - Monitoring relevant trends and developments in the area of sustainability and reporting to the GOC and the Board if programme improvements or enhancements are recommended - Reporting to the GOC and the Board on the progress made relating to data collection and KPI reporting - Ensuring the Eurofins Group continually improves ESG initiatives and reporting
