Full assessment

Just Group PLC provides some indication that it considers the consistency of its external engagement with its climate objectives, noting that it "co-ordinates its sustainability efforts through a small core team which interacts across the business to ensure wholistic engagement and alignment of climate change with other business initiatives" and that it is "a member of the Association of British Insurers ('ABI') and have aligned our targets with the ABI climate change roadmap" while it "regularly engage[s] in discussions on climate change via the ABI". This shows that the company looks at how its trade-association activity relates to its own climate targets, which indicates a limited governance approach for indirect lobbying alignment. However, beyond stating that the core team oversees "external engagement activities" the disclosures do not set out a dedicated procedure for reviewing or monitoring lobbying positions, make no reference to audits of trade-association climate positions, and do not identify a specific individual or board committee that is tasked with ensuring lobbying alignment; the governance information provided (e.g., the Chief Risk Officer chaired steering committee and board-level oversight) relates to overall sustainability strategy rather than to lobbying governance. Consequently, while there is a general commitment to keep engagement consistent with climate strategy, the company does not disclose detailed mechanisms, monitoring steps, or accountability structures tailored to lobbying, and no public lobbying-alignment report is mentioned.
