Adecco Group AG
- Named executive owner
- Trade association review
- Withdrawal mechanism
- Paris Agreement alignment
- Direct lobbying governance
Adecco's lobbying governance is anchored in a dedicated Public Affairs function that "reports directly to the Group CEO" and, by "building from a priority topic list, ensures that the Group develops and advocates consistent and strategically aligned public policy positions," with "significant public policy positions and discussion papers ... signed off by senior leadership." The Group also records its indirect engagement via BusinessEurope on climate change and confirms that "we have evaluated, and it is aligned" with the Paris Agreement, registering its activities transparently in the EU Transparency Register. However, the company does not disclose any detailed monitoring metrics, a formal review cadence for climate-related lobbying, or the criteria for reassessing its membership in industry bodies, leaving the ongoing enforcement and updating of its climate-lobbying commitments somewhat unclear.
This assessment is part of the Lobbying Governance Index, covering 8,500 companies scored on whether they have processes to oversee their climate lobbying. See all companies in Europe or all companies in Switzerland.
