Voor deze disclosure
Kern van de disclosure
This disclosure asks an organisation to explain what sustainability information is actually reaching its administrative, management and supervisory bodies, and which sustainability matters those bodies are dealing with. In practice, it is about showing whether the top governance bodies are being kept informed in a meaningful way, and whether they are discussing the issues that matter most to the business and its impacts, risks and opportunities.
The practical focus is on breadth and relevance, not just isolated examples. An organisation should think about whether the reporting and discussion cover the whole business where relevant, rather than only a few flagship sites, and whether the matters addressed reflect the organisation’s significant sustainability topics. The aim is to show how governance bodies are connected to sustainability oversight in day-to-day decision-making, not just at a high level.

＋ Subelementen van GOV-2 tonen (LRA-werkchecklist)
State whether an incentive scheme is in place.
Describe the main features of that scheme.
Show what share of variable pay is tied to sustainability.
List the targets or measures used for that link.
Hoe u dit voorbereidt
Confirm which pay arrangements sit in scope for this disclosure, then separate any scheme that is tied to sustainability from other reward plans so you only assess the relevant ones.
For each in-scope arrangement, define the basic design features in plain business terms: who can receive it, what drives the award, and how it operates in practice.
Identify the measures or performance indicators used to judge outcomes, and gather the source records that show how those measures were set and applied.
Work out the share of variable pay connected to sustainability for the reporting period, using a clear and traceable calculation that can be checked back to the underlying records.
Record any exclusions, boundary choices, restatements, or changes in method, and explain why they were made so the reported information is understandable and comparable.
Before finalising, compare the draft against the official source material and internal approvals to make sure the wording, figures, and scope all match the underlying evidence.
De gegevens opvragen
Request board and committee briefing evidence
Vertaal de disclosure naar een interne bedrijfsvraag — en pas die daarna aan op het taalgebruik van uw organisatie.
What information was shared with the board and its committees about sustainability topics, and what pay-linked measures were in place during the reporting period?
Use your organisation’s own names for the board, committees, pay plans and performance measures first, then map them to the reporting disclosure. Keep the ask in business language rather than framework wording, and check the source material before sign-off.
Zwak verzoek
Please provide the ESRS 2 GOV-2 information on the evidence needed for ESRS 2:GOV-2, including incentive scheme details and the percentage of variable remuneration linked to sustainability.
Waarom dit misgaat: This uses framework wording that many internal owners will not recognise, so it is harder to route, harder to answer, and more likely to produce a compliance-style reply instead of the underlying papers and plan data. It also bundles several asks without naming the actual board materials or internal plan records the owner should pull.
Beter verzoek
Please send the board and committee papers for [period] that show which sustainability topics were covered, plus any pay plan or scorecard that used sustainability-linked measures and the share of variable pay tied to those measures. Use your own names for the forums and plans, and include the document reference for each item.
Sjabloon voor een formele e-mail

Controleer bij elke bewering het bewijs
| Bewering | Risico | Te controleren bewijs |
|---|---|---|
| We said whether any pay or bonus arrangements for the board and committee members were tied to sustainability matters. | An assurer will check that the statement is complete, that the answer is not implied rather than explicit, and that the reporting period and covered people are clear. | Approved remuneration policy, board or committee papers, HR or company secretariat records, and the final disclosure sign-off showing the yes/no position stated in the report. |
| We explained how those pay arrangements connect to sustainability topics and set out the main features of the scheme. | An assurer will probe whether the description matches the actual design of the arrangement, whether the features are described consistently across documents, and whether any material element has been left out. | Scheme rules, remuneration committee papers, policy documents, and any internal summary used to draft the disclosure, with cross-checks to the published wording. |
| We identified which sustainability measures or goals were used to judge performance under the pay arrangement. | An assurer will test whether the measures named are the ones actually used, whether they were in force for the period reported, and whether the disclosure avoids mixing up targets with broader ambitions. | Target-setting papers, scorecards, performance assessment templates, committee minutes, and the final report version showing the measures disclosed. |
| We stated what share of variable pay depended on sustainability-linked measures. | An assurer will check the calculation basis, whether the percentage is for the correct population and period, and whether the figure is internally consistent with the underlying remuneration data. | Remuneration calculations, payroll or finance workings, committee approvals, and a reconciliation from the underlying pay data to the percentage reported. |
Voor te bereiden bewijsdossier
Veelvoorkomende hiaten in de rapportage
The information is presented without a date or as-at point.
The scope or boundary of the statement is left undefined.
Key terms are used inconsistently across the report.
Material changes since the previous period are not disclosed.
Assertions are made without supporting detail or a source record.
Boilerplate is used that does not actually answer what is asked.
Veelvoorkomende hiaten
Fouten om te vermijden bij het verzamelen van gegevens
Wrong ownerChasing the board secretary for pay-plan details, when the live source sits with reward, HR or the remuneration committee pack, leads to incomplete or delayed data.
Framework language firstAsking teams for the governance-body wording instead of their own business terms means people cannot match the request to the records they actually hold.
Scope not pinned downPulling figures without stating which entity, plan, committee cycle or staff group is in scope creates a mix of in-scope and out-of-scope records.
Wrong period basisUsing a calendar-year extract for a reporting period that follows a different cut-off produces numbers that do not line up with the period being reported.
Mixed counting basisCombining headcount, eligible participants and award recipients in one tally makes the denominator unclear and the resulting percentage unusable.
Source labels stripped outCopying values into a clean spreadsheet without keeping the original field names, file names or system tags breaks the link back to the source record.
Populations mergedPutting executive pay data and wider employee incentive data into one pool hides which group each figure belongs to and can distort the result.
Evidence trail missingSaving the final numbers without the underlying extract, date stamp and reviewer sign-off leaves no audit trail for later challenge.
Waar vaak een professionele afweging nodig is
What counts as a sustainability-linked pay planDecide whether the arrangement is a true incentive plan or just a wider pay policy, and explain the basis used to include or exclude it from the board pack.
Which performance measures to nameIf different countries, business lines or committees use different measures, set out the version used for the report and note any local variants that were left out.
How to handle a year of change in the group perimeterWhen acquisitions, disposals or restructurings change the reporting group, state the cut-off date and whether the figures reflect the old or new structure, with any restated comparatives.
Whether a small or newly joined population is in scopeFor people just inside or just outside the relevant pay population, explain the inclusion rule used and whether part-year service, probation or temporary cover was counted.
Choosing between actual results and estimatesIf some figures come from calculations, proxies or management estimates rather than direct records, say which parts are estimated and describe the method used to fill the gaps.
Picking the timing basis for the figuresWhere the board saw information at a different point from the year-end reporting cut-off, disclose the date or period used and keep the timing basis consistent across the narrative and numbers.
Rounding and percentage presentationIf percentages or amounts are rounded, make the rounding rule clear and ensure the published share linked to sustainability does not conflict with the underlying totals.
Protecting personal data in small teamsWhere the relevant group is small enough that individual pay details could be inferred, aggregate the figures to a level that avoids identification and explain the privacy-driven grouping used.
Voorbeelden
Illustratieve voorbeelden
Synthetisch, geschreven door LRA — niet afkomstig uit een bedrijfsrapport en geen tekst uit een standaard.
Illustrative (synthetic) example — Manufacturing
We use a variable pay plan for senior leaders, and part of that award depends on sustainability performance. The plan is built around three measures: workplace safety, energy efficiency, and employee retention; in the current year, 30% of variable pay is tied to those measures, based on a total bonus pool of 100 units and 30 units linked to sustainability outcomes.
This example shows a simple pay structure where a portion of annual variable pay is connected to non-financial performance. The figures are internally consistent and purely illustrative.
Illustrative (synthetic) example — Financial services
Our group operates an incentive arrangement for executive management, and sustainability outcomes form one part of the award calculation. We use two measures — financed emissions reduction and staff inclusion outcomes — and 25% of variable remuneration is linked to them, based on 20 units out of a 80-unit variable pay opportunity.
This example illustrates a different sector with a different mix of measures, while still showing whether an incentive arrangement exists, how it is designed, which measures are used, and the share of variable pay connected to sustainability.
Bedrijfsrapporten
Hoe bedrijven GOV-2 in de praktijk rapporteren
Voorbeelden van volledige en gedeeltelijke rapportagepraktijk. Dit zijn op bewijs gebaseerde analyses, geen sjablonen om over te nemen.
Aena S.M.E., S.A.
Air Transportation — Airport Services · Spain · 2025
Aena S.M.E., S.A.’s 2025 sustainability report provides some related context on governance and sustainability matters addressed by the company’s administrative and supervisory bodies, with references to collaboration with stakeholders (p.31) and integration of sustainability-related targets (p.68), but these disclosures are not clearly detailed. The report mentions the Board of Directors’ commitment to sustainability (p.25) and links sustainability performance to incentive schemes (p.9), yet it lacks explicit, quotable evidence for GOV 2.1 and clear disclosures on governance information provision (p.299). Overall, while governance and sustainability topics are referenced, the report does not clearly disclose the specific GOV 2 datapoints.
Enagás, S.A.
Gas Utilities · Spain · 2025
Enagás, S.A.’s 2025 Annual Report includes references to the disclosure topic GOV-2 concerning information provided to and sustainability matters addressed by the company’s administrative, management, and supervisory bodies, with mentions on pages 37, 44, and 81. However, the report does not provide clear or detailed disclosures for GOV 2.1, 2.2, or 2.3, as no quotable evidence was found for these datapoints. There is some related context linked to variable remuneration on page 108, but it is not a clear disclosure of the specific GOV 2.4 datapoint.
Hera S.p.A.
Water Utilities · Italy · 2024
Hera S.p.A.'s 2024 Consolidated Financial Statements include a specific disclosure of total variable remuneration related to ESG objectives, quantified as Euro 85,280 on page 98. There is related context on page 261 referencing incentive schemes linked to sustainability issues for administrative, management, and control roles, but this does not clearly disclose all aspects of the datapoint GOV 2.gov 2.1. No evidence was found in the report for GOV 2.gov 2.2 and GOV 2.gov 2.3, indicating these datapoints remain unaddressed or unclear.

Scenario’s om door te werken
A group has a bonus plan for executive directors, but the sustainability part is only discussed informally in meetings and is not written into the plan documents. The reporting team is deciding whether to treat this as a linked incentive arrangement for the year-end report.
VShould this be counted as a sustainability-linked pay arrangement, or left out because it is only discussed rather than formally built into the plan?
Modelantwoord tonen →Antwoord verbergen ↑
Count it only if the arrangement actually ties pay outcomes to sustainability-related measures in a way that can be evidenced. If the link is merely talked about but not part of the remuneration design, it should not be presented as a linked scheme. The team should base the answer on the substance of the pay design, not on informal discussion notes.
Waarom dit ertoe doet · Use the real design of the pay arrangement, not loose conversation, when deciding whether sustainability is built into incentives.
The board receives a quarterly pack that mentions emissions, workforce safety and ethics incidents, but the pack also includes many other topics. The preparer is unsure whether to describe all of these as matters the board dealt with, or only the ones that led to actual discussion and follow-up.
VWhich topics should be reported as matters the board addressed: everything in the pack, or only the sustainability topics that were actually taken up in governance discussions?
Modelantwoord tonen →Antwoord verbergen ↑
Report the sustainability topics that were genuinely brought to the board or its committees for consideration, not every item that happened to appear in the pack. The focus is on what the top governance group actually dealt with, so the narrative should reflect the matters that were discussed, reviewed or acted on in practice.
Waarom dit ertoe doet · Only include sustainability topics that were truly handled in governance, not every subject mentioned in briefing papers.
A company uses a scorecard for annual bonuses. Half of the variable pay depends on financial performance, and the other half depends on a mix of safety, emissions and employee engagement measures. The reporting team has to explain the share linked to sustainability without overstating it.
VHow should the team present the proportion of variable pay tied to sustainability measures when only part of the bonus uses those measures?
Modelantwoord tonen →Antwoord verbergen ↑
State the share of variable pay that is connected to sustainability measures as a proportion of the total variable element, and make clear that only the sustainability-linked part is being counted. In this case, the correct figure is 50% of variable pay, because the other half is tied to non-sustainability measures. The explanation should be clear enough for a reader to see how the percentage was derived.
Waarom dit ertoe doet · Show the sustainability-linked share of variable pay as a clear proportion of the total variable element.
The sustainability team has a draft note saying the board discussed climate, labour and anti-corruption matters, but it does not say what performance measures were used, whether any incentives were in place, or how much pay was affected. The preparer must decide whether the note is complete enough for disclosure.
VIs it enough to say the board discussed these topics, or does the disclosure also need the incentive link and the measures used to judge performance?
Modelantwoord tonen →Antwoord verbergen ↑
The note is not complete on its own. The disclosure should cover whether there is a sustainability-linked incentive arrangement, what its main features are, which targets or measures are used, and the share of variable pay connected to those measures. If the board discussed sustainability matters separately, that should also be described, but it does not replace the remuneration information.
Waarom dit ertoe doet · Cover both the incentive design and the sustainability matters handled by governance, because they are separate parts of the disclosure.

FAQ
Vragen die deze pagina beantwoordt
How do I use the GOV-2 page to draft a sustainability-linked pay disclosure from scratch?+−
Start with the plain-language explainer, then work through the step-by-step preparation section and the four datapoints to prepare. The page also gives narrative starters, a content-index line and a synthetic example you can adapt into a first draft.
What data do I need to collect for GOV-2: Incentive plan flag, scheme design summary, performance measures used and sustainability pay share?+−
The page lists those four datapoints as the core inputs to prepare. Use them to build the disclosure and check that your figures and descriptions line up before drafting.
How should I set the scope and methodology for the sustainability pay share in GOV-2?+−
Use the page’s preparation steps to define what you are including, then keep the scope and method consistent with the data you report. The page is designed to help you turn that into a clear draft, but it does not give a separate formal methodology.
Who should own the GOV-2 data collection and sign-off in practice?+−
The page is aimed at sustainability/ESG managers, HR or data owners, and assurance reviewers, so ownership should sit with the people who can source the pay and scheme data and check it for accuracy. The workbook is there to help you organise that process.
What should I put in the evidence pack for GOV-2 assurance readiness?+−
The page says there is an evidence pack with five items for assurance readiness. Use it to support the four assurance claims to verify and keep the underlying records together before review.
What are the four assurance claims I need to verify for GOV-2?+−
The page says there are four claims to verify, each with a claim, risk and evidence angle. Use those prompts to test whether the disclosure is supported and whether the evidence pack is complete.
What are the most common GOV-2 reporting mistakes to avoid?+−
The page includes a list of common reporting gaps and mistakes. Use it as a pre-submission check so the datapoints, narrative and evidence all match and nothing important is left out.
How do I use the Prep & Assurance workbook for GOV-2?+−
The Download Centre includes a Prep & Assurance workbook in .xlsx format. It is meant to help you organise the preparation steps, evidence and assurance checks before turning the data into a draft.
What can I do with the synthetic GOV-2 example disclosure on the page?+−
Use the synthetic example as a model for structure, wording and how the quantitative table is presented. It is illustrative only, so you should adapt it to your own data and keep the numbers internally consistent.
How do I turn GOV-2 data into a draft narrative and content-index line?+−
The draft-output section gives visualisation ideas, narrative starters and a content-index line. Use those to convert the prepared datapoints into a concise disclosure that is easy to review and trace back to evidence.
