Environmental Obligations Diagnostic Test

The legislation checker provides an initial overview of environmental frameworks that may be relevant based on your company's region, size and industry.

You'll need basic information about your company, such as the primary business region, industry, number of employees, annual revenue, and whether it is publicly traded.

Not every company is required to calculate its carbon footprint. This checker offers initial guidance, but it cannot determine on its own whether a legal obligation applies to your company.

The checker groups companies into three indicative bands by headcount (250 or fewer employees, 251–1,000 and more than 1,000) and also asks whether net turnover exceeds €450 million. These bands are for guidance only, not a legal determination: how each requirement applies can also depend on national rules, group structure and financial year.

No. The tool does not calculate your carbon footprint; for that you can use our free carbon footprint calculator. The checker gives initial guidance on topics you may need to review, but it does not determine on its own which obligations apply to your company.

A listed (or publicly traded) company has its shares admitted to trading on a stock exchange. The checker asks whether your company is listed as one more guidance data point; this alone does not determine whether a rule applies to your company.

The checker asks for your company's main business region, but rules can apply across borders and depend on national transposition, group structure and financial year. Treat the result as an indicative overview and confirm how it applies with a legal adviser.

It covers a wide range of industries, including agriculture and mining, construction, manufacturing, financial services, technology, healthcare, education, tourism, commerce, media, and public services, among others.

The checker offers an initial guide to the legal frameworks and voluntary standards worth reviewing, but it does not determine whether a rule is mandatory for your company. Confirm how it applies according to your jurisdiction and circumstances.

The results give an indicative overview of the frameworks worth reviewing and help you plan your next steps in emissions management. They are not a legal determination: confirm any obligation with a legal adviser.
