Deloitte to Include Sustainable Delivery Clause in Client Contracts

Big Four firm Deloitte, looks to lead the industry in making working sustainably the default manner of doing business by including 'Clause Zero' – in client engagement letters and contracts this year

'Clause Zero' is designed to support sustainable client delivery and is part of a range of measures – from introducing climate learning across the global network to reducing energy consumption across UK offices

The clause will encourage and support Deloitte and its clients to deliver projects in a more sustainable way – for example by opting for digital options such as virtual meetings and using online tools to help make low carbon choices when travel is required. It is designed to place sustainability at the forefront of every project, from initial pursuit through to completion.
