Accor vincula las primas de su personal a los objetivos climáticos... y afirma que está dando sus frutos

Key Points

• Accor ties procurement staff bonuses to working with suppliers aligned with its climate goals, improving both sustainability and profit margins.
• Most of Accor's emissions come from its supply chain, prompting a global supplier program aimed at cutting Scope 3 emissions by 28% by 2030.
• Challenges remain due to rising overall emissions, franchise model limitations, and the need for better supplier carbon data, especially from smaller businesses.

Summary

Accor has implemented a policy linking procurement staff bonuses to the use of suppliers that align with its climate goals, a move credited with improving both sustainability and profit margins. The hotel group, which manages nearly 6,000 hotels and works with over 5,000 suppliers, launched a global program in 2024 to cut supply chain (Scope 3) emissions by 28% by 2030. Despite progress, Accor faces challenges due to continued emissions growth, franchise limitations, and the need for more comprehensive carbon data from suppliers, especially smaller ones.
