Post Holdings Inc
- Public alignment report
- Paris Agreement alignment
- Direct lobbying governance
Post Holdings Inc. discloses a basic internal mechanism to oversee climate-related policy engagement, noting that "all engagements that have a connection to the topic of GHG emissions and/or climate change has at least one member of our ESG Steering Committee and/or ESG Operations Council actively involved and informed and/or our Senior Director, ESG oversees the engagement." This statement identifies a named oversight structure - the ESG Steering Committee / ESG Operations Council - and a specific individual, the "Senior Director, ESG," demonstrating that climate-focused advocacy activities receive sign-off from senior personnel. The company also repeats that oversight arrangement when asked about consistency with its climate commitments, again confirming that these bodies "actively" monitor such engagements. However, beyond this internal sign-off, the disclosure offers no detail on how lobbying positions are reviewed, how direct and indirect lobbying are aligned, or whether trade-association memberships are assessed; moreover, the company admits "No, and we do not plan to have one in the next two years" regarding a public commitment to conduct engagement in line with the Paris Agreement. The absence of information about monitoring criteria, corrective actions, or public reporting of alignment indicates the governance remains limited to an internal oversight step rather than a comprehensive framework that covers both direct and indirect lobbying activities.
