Scope of pledges
Compass Group operates in various markets around the world through a number of subsidiaries with clear operational and commercial boundaries. In Switzerland, the company is represented by Compass Group Schweiz AG. The pledges taken within the STI framework relate to the sustainability policy of Compass Group Schweiz AG. The latter is therefore accountable for their implementation within its scope of activity. Where these commitments directly reinforce the Group's sustainability strategy, a special mention is added in the wording.
