Carbon Reduction Plan 

Commitment to achieving net zero

Genmed is committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2045, in its own operations and working with our supply chain. To stay on track, we review our emissions and have set clear goals.
Draft plan subject to internal review for continuous improvement.
Near term goals (by 2030, 2022-2023 baseline)
Reduce Scope 1 by 5%
Reduce Scope 2 by 10%
Reduce Scope 3 by 45%

Long term goals (by 2050, 2022-2023 baseline)
Reduce Scope 1 by 50%
Reduce Scope 2 by 50%
Reduce Scope 3 by 75%

Baseline emissions footprint

Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and were produced prior to the introduction of any strategies to reduce emissions.
Baseline emissions are the reference point against which emissions reduction can be measured.
Baseline year: 2022-23
Additional details relating to the baseline emissions calculations:
Details of the standard, protocol, or methodology you have used to collect activity data and calculate emissions:
Genmed were awarded the ISO 14001:2015 certification in March 2020 and successfully retained the certification in 2023-2024 with zero major or minor nonconformities.
This means that Genmed maintain awareness of and comply with appropriate environmental legislation, regulations and accepted standards and codes of practice and fully meet customer and interested parties stated and/or perceived environmental expectations by the prevention of pollution as far as reasonably practicable. We look to continually review and monitor all aspects of the company’s activities in a bid to identify opportunities for implementing environmental performance improvement. Genmed ensure that this policy and supporting processes are understood by and communicated within the organisation and that this policy is available to the public.
In the year 2022-2023 we, measured all aspects within the office where we feel that we can reduce our environmental impact.
Reducing the amount of waste that we have going to landfill and have diverted over 80% of office waste going to landfill through our Biffa contract in our base year 2022-2023.
Introduced confidential shredding for all paper within the offices, and this is weighed and logged within the business. Each office uses local companies for their confidential shredding.

Emissions reduction targets

To continue our progress to achieving net zero, we have adopted the following carbon reduction targets.

We project that carbon emissions will decrease over the next five years to 33,227 tCO2e by 2030. This is a reduction of 35%.

Carbon reduction projects

Completed carbon reduction initiatives.

The following environmental management measures and projects have been completed or implemented since the 2022-2023 baseline. The carbon emission reduction achieved by these schemes equate to 27,032 tCO2e, a 34.59% reduction against the 2022-2023 baseline and the measures will be in effect when performing the contract.

The following projects were initiated by Genmed in 2023-2024 to reduce emissions as 69% of Genmed’s total emissions are scope 3 our focus is on Scope 3 sources.

Future carbon reduction initiatives

In the future we hope to implement further measures such as: Steering working group to review the companies ESG strategy in line with the UN 17 Sustainability goals. Further focus on scope 3 emissions with 3 key focus areas Waste, materials, and travel
