In business activities

Swiss Life seeks to continuously reduce CO₂ emissions per FTE in office buildings for its own use and in activities connected with its operations. At present it is doing so primarily by purchasing electricity from sustainably produced sources and by adjusting travel activities. Since 2022, Swiss Life has also promoted climate change mitigation measures in the form of certified projects in its core European markets to the extent of the measured, unavoidable CO₂ emissions from operations. These contribute not only to reducing CO₂ but also to preserving biodiversity, for example through forest conservation and reafforestation or the production of biochar. Therefore, operational activities at Swiss Life have been net zero since 2022.
