Appendix

1

For 2008 calculations, the UK’s grid rolling average conversion factor (DEFRA) has been used. This change increases CO₂ as calculated from electricity by ~25%. As of 2007, this figure includes data from 100% of our UK occupied properties. An adjustment to meters newly installed in London office has led to changes in data for 2007.

2

Employee numbers taken from average security headcount where available (recorded 11am at main offices) and from workstation numbers at smaller offices.

3

N/A = Not available.

4

Live contracts are an indication of business on our books. In 2007, Legal & General had 6,364,633 live contracts and in 2006 6,294,051 live contracts.

5

Data is collected from rail, air and road transport.

6

Occupied properties and business travel encompasses Legal & General’s direct carbon footprint and is used for subsequent resulting overall CO₂. Resulting CO₂ per employee is based on total UK staff, not office based staff due to inclusion of travel CO₂.

7

Only includes metered gas consumption.

8

Normalised energy data excludes St Monica’s Training Centre and is based on headcount where available (see note 2).

9

Recycling figures expanded in 2006 to include all major offices and in 2007 to cover regional offices with improved data analysis from expanded ISO 14001 certification. Waste used for the Key Performance Indicators on this data sheet is ‘business as usual waste’. It does not include the office closure waste handled by Green Standards in 2007.

10

Figures converted to kgs from reams in 2006.

11

Taken from data and headcount at the five largest offices.

12

Numbers taken from 11am headcount on security passes at main offices and workstations at other regional premises and used for normalisation.
