SUSTAINABILITY
We’re committed to creating a sustainable future, together
At Workday, we measure our success not only in financial terms, but also by how we operate in the world. It’s why we build sustainability into everything we do.
OUR PRIORITIES
Taking responsibility for our environmental impact
As a leading provider of enterprise cloud applications, our approach to sustainability focuses on the areas where we can make the most impact.
We’re actively reducing our carbon footprint, making investments in renewable energy, promoting climate policy, reducing and responsibly disposing of our e-waste, and encouraging our employees to adopt sustainable practices.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
We’re taking action against climate change
Workday has set science-based emissions reduction targets that are consistent with keeping global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. We’re aligning our sustainability journey with the transition to a net-zero future.
Mitigating our emissions
We made a bold commitment to reach net-zero carbon emissions and operate on 100% renewable electricity by 2021. In fact, we’re one of the first companies to achieve a lifetime net-zero carbon footprint.
Investing in carbon removal
We’ve joined Frontier, a $1 billion advance market commitment to buy permanent carbon removal. We also made a $1 million investment to aid mangrove reforestation in Mexico and Kenya – a natural climate solution.
OUR EFFORTS
How we do our part
We’re always looking for ways to create a more sustainable future. Here are some of the efforts and policies we’ve enacted to ensure we do our part.
We use renewable electricity
Our offices and data centres use 100% renewable electricity. And we procure high-quality carbon credits to offset 100% of our natural gas, data centre cooling and business travel emissions.
We signed the first clean energy deal of its kind
We joined Bloomberg, Cox Enterprises, Gap Inc. and Salesforce to create the first-ever small aggregation clean energy deal.
We developed a climate policy statement
Since the creation of our climate policy statement, we’ve accelerated our participation in the climate policy making process to drive meaningful action.
We responsibly dispose of what we can’t recycle
We adhere to strict e-Stewards standards for e-waste disposal.
