Reuters surveyed 20 large companies that both report their carbon footprints and embrace remote work about whether they estimate carbon emissions from employees' home offices.
, a collaboration software maker, estimated emissions of 3,365 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent in the year ended June 30, 2021 from remote work by its over 6,000 employees that year. Combined emissions from commuting and remote work fell 32% from the year-earlier period. Its goal to operate on 100% renewable energy does not apply to remote work, but it is evaluating how to address remote-work emissions.
Nationwide Mutual Insurance Co, a Columbus, Ohio financial services seller, said its home-office "reporting method is not ready for primetime" and that it would adopt "new best practices" on emissions accounting as it gains more experience with hybrid work. Recreational Equipment Inc, a U.S. outdoor gear retailer also known as REI, said it continuously improves its emissions reporting and awaits uniform industry standards to account for remote work.
