In 2001, the GRI launched its supplement programme in response to consistent feedback
on the importance of sector-specific guidance built on the foundation of the Guidelines.
These supplements capture issues unique and essential to reporting in a specific sector,
but which may not appear in the Guidelines since they are relevant primarily for a
particular range of reporting organisations. Combining the Guidelines and the
supplements, such as the Tour Operators supplement , will support comparison of
reporting organisations both across sectors and within the context of their own sector.
This supplement adds to, but does not replace, the Guidelines’ section on performance
indicators.

Science Based Targets: Scope and Goals of the Transport Refinement ProjectScience Based Targets
The Science Based Targets initiative champions science-based target setting as a powerful way of boosting companies’ competitive advantage in the transition to the low-carbon economy.
Since officially launching in June, 2015, up to 23 June 2017:
279 Companies Part of SBTi Call to Action
157 Committed companies have submitted targets
51 Approved and listed targets
2.6 Companies joining the initiative on average every week
The goals of the Transport Refinement Project are to:
Produce an SDA Transport Tool that a broader range of companies can use to model transport GHG reduction targets, consistent with the long-term temperature goals adopted in the Paris Agreement.
2) Produce a Technical Paper explaining main projections and assumptions embedded in the decarbonization models useful for companies to inform their carbon strategies. This document will also explain the methodological choices adopted after consultation.
3) Produce Target-setting Guidance, for different end- users (i.e. passenger transport companies, logistic companies, vehicle & autopart manufactures, other transport emissions in the value chain) on how to use the SDA transport tool to set GHG reduction targets.

What is the global reporting initiative?dean771100
What is the Global Reporting Initiative?
The GRI is a global standard for sustainability reporting designed by organizations and investors to measure business performance. The GRI has been adopted as a requirement by leading institutional investors, government regulators and development organizations around the world. It sets out a universal framework for sustainability reporting based on the shared understanding that such information can provide new insights into how companies operate and their contribution to sustainable development.
The document discusses the purposes of reporting tables for cooperative approaches under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. It notes that paragraph 77(d) requires parties using cooperative approaches to provide specific information on emissions and transfers of mitigation outcomes. An effective reporting table design should fulfill the requirements of 77(d) while promoting transparency, accuracy and understanding of nation climate actions. It suggests that the most robust design presented still lacks some key information required by 77(d) and does not enable reporting on all important issues. Separating details on cooperative approaches into dedicated tables could improve readability while ensuring consistency between negotiation workstreams.
The document discusses recent changes in sustainability and ESG reporting standards. It notes that organizations are working to develop comprehensive and consistent global standards to increase transparency and comparability. Initiatives are underway to merge existing standards and develop a unified framework for sustainability reporting. Stakeholders are calling for standardized metrics and disclosures to better measure performance and contributions to sustainable development goals.

This document discusses the United Nations Global Compact and its role in supporting businesses to operate sustainably and responsibly. It outlines that the UN Global Compact brings businesses together to create a more sustainable world by aligning operations with internationally recognized sustainability standards. It then details the main areas that the UN Global Compact covers through its activities, including promoting education and awareness on sustainability, facilitating partnerships, engaging in policy dialogue, and providing support and recognition to participating organizations.
The corporate governance framework should promote transparent and fair markets to efficiently allocate resources. It should be consistent with the rule of law and enable effective supervision and enforcement. An effective framework requires a sound legal, regulatory and institutional foundation that market participants can rely on. The framework comprises elements of legislation, regulation, self-regulation and voluntary commitments that vary between countries based on circumstances. Frameworks should be reviewed and updated as experiences and business environments change.

2. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
Primary Authors
The Tour Operators’ Sector Supplement was developed by a multi-stakeholder
working group convened by the United Nations Environment Programme’s Tour
Operators’ Initiative (TOI) in partnership with the GRI. The Tour Operators’
Initiative (TOI) is a network of tour operators committed to introducing sustainability
into their business practices. The Initiative has been developed by tour operators for
tour operators with the support of the United Nations Environment Programme
(UNEP), the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
(UNESCO) and the World Tourism Organization (WTO/OMT), who are also full
members of the Initiative. Under this international umbrella, tour operators who are
members of the Initiative are able to respond to international agendas while creating a
platform to develop ideas and projects to address the environmental, social, economic
and cultural aspects of sustainable development within the tourism sector.
The Initiative is voluntary, non-profit, and open to all tour operators, regardless of
their size and geographical location. The main requirement for membership is to sign
a commitment to adopt the principles of sustainable tourism and to implement these
principles through a corporate sustainable tourism policy. As part of this
commitment, members also agree to monitor and report their progress.

3. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
Preface
The GRI is pleased to release the pilot version of the Tour Operators’ Sector Supplement.
This document offers a set of supplemental sustainability performance indicators for use
in conjunction with the GRI 2002 Sustainability Reporting Guidelines (‘the Guidelines’).
The indicators were identified as specifically relevant to the tour operators’ sector
through an extensive multi-stakeholder process convened by GRI and the Tour Operators
Initiative (TOI).
In 2001, the GRI launched its supplement programme in response to consistent feedback
on the importance of sector-specific guidance built on the foundation of the Guidelines.
These supplements capture issues unique and essential to reporting in a specific sector,
but which may not appear in the Guidelines since they are relevant primarily for a
particular range of reporting organisations. Combining the Guidelines and the
supplements, such as the Tour Operators supplement , will support comparison of
reporting organisations both across sectors and within the context of their own sector.
This supplement adds to, but does not replace, the Guidelines’ section on performance
indicators.
The release of this document, and the Financial Services Sector Supplement, represents
the first step in GRI’s development of a complete set of sector-specific guidance. These
supplements will be developed over the next few years using multi-stakeholder processes
convened through GRI. The supplements are designed as complements to the Guidelines,
and outline performance measures of specific importance to a given sector The
Guidelines remain the starting point for any organisation seeking to use the GRI reporting
framework. The conditions for reporting “in accordance” as outlined in the 2002
Guidelines remain unchanged and are independent of whether or not supplements are
applied. Over the longer-term, the GRI Board of Directors will pursue the continued
integration of GRI products in a manner that maximises utility and efficiency for users of
the GRI reporting framework.
In keeping with the new due process structure for GRI documents approved by the GRI
Board of Directors, this supplement is being released as a pilot version. Under GRI due
process, documents under preparation by working groups are first released as exposure
drafts for consultation and testing. Next, when the document has reached an advanced
state of maturity (typically following up to a year or more of exposure drafts,
consultation, and testing), the document is reviewed for release as a pilot version. Such a
release signifies that a document has passed a serious review of its technical merits (both
the content and the process of development), and is ready for use by companies.
Following release of a pilot, the GRI will establish a structured feedback process under
the supervision of its Technical Advisory Council to capture the new learning that
emerges through actual use. This process will engage report makers and users to monitor
the reaction in the marketplace as the supplement receives active use. The structured
feedback process will focus heavily on the interaction between the Guidelines and the
6 NOVEMBER 2002 ii GRI (2002)
4. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
supplements. The early experiences in using pilot versions will provide invaluable
feedback on the effective and practical integration of the family of GRI documents. At
the end of the structured feedback process, the Technical Advisory Council will present
its recommendations to the GRI Board of Directors and the supplement will be released
in its final version. GRI anticipates that this process will extend into 2004.
This due process is based on common practices used for setting other international
standards, and reflects the basic steps that have been applied to the development of the
GRI Guidelines since 1999. It should be noted, however, that even “final” versions will
continue to follow the cycle of review, testing, and improvement that is required of all
GRI documents, including the Guidelines. At the same time, GRI recognises the need for
stability and predictability in such products and will ensure that these objectives are
properly balanced with innovation.
GRI strongly encourages the uptake and use of this pilot supplement. Learning by doing
has been the key force driving continued improvement in the GRI reporting framework,
and the supplements will be no exception. This document represents the best thinking to
date, developed through the GRI multi-stakeholder process, on sustainability
performance indicators specific to the tour operators’ sector, and the culmination of
almost a year of work by the TOI and its many collaborators.
The GRI expresses its deep appreciation to the TOI members and all the stakeholders
who participated in the development of this supplement. The GRI looks forward to
continued engagement with the participants in this process and welcomes new
opportunities for developing supplements for other sectors.

Introduction
Reporting Using the GRI Framework
The GRI reporting framework comprises three sets of documents. Together, this family
of documents represents a comprehensive framework for measuring and reporting on
economic, environmental, and social reporting at an organizational level.
• The GRI Sustainability Reporting Guidelines (the “Guidelines”)
• Sector and Issue supplements
• Technical protocols
The Guidelines represent the foundation upon which all other GRI reporting documents
are based, and outline core content that is broadly relevant to all organisations regardless
of size, sector, or location. All organisations seeking to report using the GRI framework
should use the Guidelines as the basis for their report, supported by the other GRI
documents as applicable.
In addition to the Guidelines, the GRI family of documents will also include a growing
number of sector supplements. While GRI believes that establishing a core set of
Guidelines is essential to achieve consistent and comparable reporting across diverse
organisations, GRI also recognises that a generic set of indicators may fail to capture
aspects of sustainability performance that are unique and crucial to a given industry
sector (e.g., mining, automotive, pharmaceuticals). The sector supplements will be
designed to provide indicators for use in conjunction with the Guidelines that highlight
the specific issues that characterise a given industry sector.
Lastly, GRI is also drafting technical protocols that offer specific guidance on various
technical aspects of reporting within the GRI framework, including expectations related
to measurement of specific indicators.
For more information on GRI or to obtain a copy of the 2002 GRI Guidelines or other
GRI documents, please visit the GRI website at: www.globalreporting.org. Use of the
GRI framework is voluntary.

7. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
Applicability of This Supplement
This sector supplement applies only to businesses dedicated to organising holiday
packages1
. This supplement was not designed to capture sector-specific aspects of the
various service industries associated with a package, such as transport, accommodation,
and other tourism services.
The Process for Developing This Supplement
The development of the tour operators’ sector-specific performance indicators had to take
into account three main considerations.
First, the supplemental indicators had to complement the performance indicators
contained in the 2002 Guidelines. Therefore, the supplement aimed to capture issues that
were either:
• Essential components of sustainability unique to tour operators; or
• Relevant to numerous sectors, but of critical importance to tour operators’
sustainability performance.
The second consideration was the recognition of the ‘middle man’ role of tour operators
in the tourism industry. Tour operators don’t deliver services or produce physical
products. Clearly defining the boundaries of responsibility was therefore considered a
necessary first step in the process.
Lastly, a final consideration was that the lack of examples of sustainability reports in the
sector meant that the performance indicators could not be based on existing practices.
The Multi-Stakeholder Working Group (MSWG) that revised the performance indicators,
included representatives from:
• Civil society organisations (non-profit advocacy groups, consumers’ and trade
unions);
• Local authorities and tourism boards;
• Tour operators’ suppliers (accommodation, cruise liners, airlines, ground
transport); and
1 According to the European Commission, a package is a pre-arranged combination of not fewer than two
of the following when sold or offered for sale at an inclusive price and when the service covers a period of
more than twenty-four hours or includes overnight accommodation:
a) transport
b) accommodation
c) other tourism services not ancillary to transport or accommodation and accounting for a significant
proportion of the package.
6 NOVEMBER 2002 2 GRI (2002)
8. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
• Tour operators selected from among the members of the Tour Operators’
Initiative.
Two co-chairs—one business and one non-business representative—were elected to
ensure that all perspectives were equally and properly integrated during the development
of the supplement. The two co-chairs, Nico Visser of Travel Unie Nederland and Graham
Gordon of Tearfund, facilitated the meetings of the MSWG. A GRI-TOI Reporting
Committee consisting of a GRI liaison, a TOI representative, the two MSWG Co-Chairs,
and a UNEP representative oversaw the process. The work of the MSWG was co-
ordinated by UNEP, which also acts as the TOI Secretariat.
The process began with an advisory meeting in September 2001 in Paris that brought
together tour operators and their direct stakeholders to agree on which actions and
decisions in the preparation and delivery of the holiday package have an environmental,
social, and/or economic influence or impact, thereby setting the boundaries of
responsibility for reporting. The participants in the advisory meeting recognised that a
clear and shared agreement on ‘how far’ a tour operator could go in improving the
sustainability of its product was a necessary pre-requisite to beginning a discussion on
performance indicators.
Following the meeting, UNEP and GRI invited a number of tour operators and
stakeholders to form the MSWG. Each member was selected based on their demonstrated
interest and competence in this subject, and readiness to engage in the process. Efforts
were also made to ensure geographical balance amongst the participants. See Annex 1 for
a complete list of the members of the MSWG.
The indicators were developed over the course of three meetings of the MSWG (16
November 2001, 18-19 February and 25-26 April 2002). During the first consultation the
group focused on identifying the sustainability issues specific to the tour operators’
sector, and not sufficiently addressed by the Guidelines. This ‘gap analysis’ brought to
light a number of suggestions for indicators to supplement those in the 2002 Guidelines.
The meeting resulted in the first draft of the sector specific indicators for tour operators.
The draft was further discussed and developed at the second meeting of the MSWG in
February 2002. Following the third meeting in April 2002, the MSWG agreed to the
content of the final draft for submission to the GRI Board of Directors. The final
document was submitted in June 2002 for review at the 20 June meeting of the GRI
Board of Directors.
The drafting process was also designed to encourage input from other stakeholders and
tour operators. Each draft of the supplement was posted on the TOI website with a direct
link from the GRI web site for two months. In addition, copies were sent to key
organisations and individuals with requests for comments. All comments received were
discussed during the consultations, as well as posted on the TOI website.

9. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
Comments from the Multi-Stakeholder Working Group
In preparing the Tour Operators’ Sector Supplement, it was necessary to elaborate on
certain aspects of reporting that are not fully developed within the core Guidelines. This
is particularly true for the category of Supply Chain Management. These differences have
significant bearing on the possibility of effectively comparing reports from companies
that use only the core GRI Guidelines, to tour operators that also use this sector
supplement.
Early in the process, members of the MSWG agreed to include qualitative performance
indicators as well as quantitative indicators. A number of the indicators chosen for the
supplement are qualitative measures that provide detailed information on implementation
of the reporting organisation’s policies. This is consistent with the approach taken to
numerous performance indicators in the 2002 Guidelines.
Lastly, it should be noted that the indicators in this supplement are the product of a multi-
stakeholder consultative process. Therefore, while each indicator represents a commonly
agreed upon position, it does not necessarily reflect the specific position of each
individual participant. The MSWG acknowledges that both the process for developing
this supplement and the selected indicators do not fully cover the expectations of each
and every stakeholder.
This sector supplement was undertaken based on the understanding that virtually all
dimensions of the tour operating business have environmental, economic, and social
impacts.
Next Steps
This supplement is the result of a nine-month process that included numerous meetings
and on-line exchanges. All participants in the process recognised that there are some
limitations to this process and in particular the difficulty of bringing into the discussion
feedback generated through experience, as this requires a much longer time. Furthermore,
all participants recognise that understanding of sustainable development and sustainable
performance continuously evolves.
The members of the MSWG were unanimous in calling for regular revisions to the tour
operators’ sector-specific performance indicators. Future revisions should also
incorporate practical experience gained in using this first set as well as evolving
understanding of sustainable development and performance.
Most participants indicated (through a questionnaire circulated during the third
consultation) that indicators should be reviewed in two to three years’ time. Key in this
revision process will be the experience gained by tour operators in using the GRI 2002
Sustainability Reporting Guidelines and the sector-specific indicators.
6 NOVEMBER 2002 4 GRI (2002)
10. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
It was therefore proposed to initiate a pilot test of the GRI 2002 Sustainability Reporting
Guidelines and the Tour Operators’ Sector Supplement, involving members of the Tour
Operators’ Initiative. Many of the stakeholders involved in the process confirmed their
interest in supporting this effort.
The pilot test would build awareness and know-how of reporting principles. Secondly, it
would facilitate the revisions and improvement of the indicators through the generation of
various outputs, among which may be:
• Structured feedback for revision of the indicators based on a common survey to
be developed with the Global Reporting Initiative.
• A user’s manual containing guidance notes to a number of indicators based on
collected best practices, as well as measurement protocols.
• Recommendations on most effective reporting formats for the sector.
• A proposed model suitable to the tour operators’ sector for organising the internal
flow of information to support reporting efforts.
• Recommendations of the links between the core Guidelines and tour operator-
specific indicators.
• A proposed classification of core and advanced indicators for the tour operators’
sector.

12. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
Supplement Content
General Notes
A number of general issues should be taken into account when using
this supplement:
1. Definitions of the term “social” vary widely amongst different groups. In the
context of tour operators, it is important to give specific consideration to the
role of culture in social sustainability, and ensure that reporting on “social
performance” reflects tour operators’ impacts and contributions to the cultures
in which they operate.
2. The supplement does not include a definition of “destination.” The MSWG
was unable to reach agreement on this question, and specifically the
geographical scope implied in the term. The definition not only varies among
tour operators, but the same tour operator uses the term “destination” to refer
to a town, a country, a region, or a continent interchangeably. It is therefore
requested that reporting organisations clearly state the definition of
‘destination’ as used in the preparation of their report.
3. During the process of developing the supplement, the participants began to
develop ‘guidance notes’ listing recommended best practices for specific
indicators, as well as more specific instruction on the sustainability issues to
be taken into account. The members of the MSWG felt that these guidance
notes should be further developed based on experience, and therefore were not
included in this supplement. The draft notes are posted on the TOI web site at
www.toinitiative.org/reporting/reporting.htm. It should be noted that these
guidance notes have not been officially reviewed and approved as part of the
GRI framework and represent the experience and recommendations of the
TOI. For technical guidance related to reporting within the GRI framework,
please see the GRI website (www.globalreporting.org) or contact the GRI
Secretariat.
Overview of the Indicator Framework
The performance indicators drafted by the MSWG request information on tour operators’
performance both in terms of policies and management systems as well as areas of
impact. The indicators are divided into categories that reflect the life cycle of the holiday
product: from the planning stage, to the development and delivery of the product. The
indicators have been grouped under five categories:
6 NOVEMBER 2002 7 GRI (2002)
13. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
• Product management and development (PMD) includes actions related to the
choice of the destination as well as the type of services to be included (e.g., the
use of train vs. plane).
• Internal management (IM) reflects all the operations and activities that take place
in the headquarters or country offices (e.g., use of office supplies, production of
brochures, direct employment).
• Supply chain management (SCM) addresses actions related to the selection and
contracting of service providers.
• Customer relations (CR) summarises the actions taken to deal with customers, not
only with regards to the responsibility to serve them and reply to their comments,
but also the opportunity to provide information and raise consumer awareness
regarding sustainability.
• Co-operation with destination (D) includes all activities and decisions related to
destinations that tour operators make beyond the production and delivery of their
holiday package. This mainly includes efforts made by tour operators to engage in
dialogues with destination operators about the impacts of tour packages, and
philanthropic activities.
The first four categories cover actions and decisions that tour operators make in
preparation of the holiday package. Through these actions and decisions, tour operators
have either a direct impact on sustainability (e.g., managing office supplies), or a
significant influence on sustainability (e.g., through the supply chain). The fifth area
covers efforts to address product impacts at the destination.
Within these five categories, the indicators have been further grouped in the three
sustainability headings where the MSWG felt relatively clear boundaries between
environmental, social, and economic performance exist (e.g., internal management). In
some categories, the indicators have not been separated into economic, environmental,
and social, since the operators could not make a distinction between these issues within
their business operations.
Linkages Between GRI 2002 Guidelines and the Tour Operators’
Supplement
When using the indicators in the Guidelines, tour operators should take into account that
some overlaps exist between the general set of indicators in the Guidelines and those in
the Tour Operators’ Sector Supplement. In many cases, the sector supplement represents
a more specific dimension of a general indicator that appears in the Guidelines. The
6 NOVEMBER 2002 8 GRI (2002)
14. PILOT VERSION 1.0 TOUR OPERATORS’ SECTOR SUPPLEMENT
overlapping and complementary areas are highlighted in Table 1. An analysis of those
linkages and suggested approaches for use of the indicators are provided in Table 2.
Specific points to note in the use of this supplement are:
• This supplement contains a number of indicators that request specific information
on policies and procedures that overlap with elements in the Guidelines section on
Governance Structure and Management Systems (Part C, Section 3). The general
subject of the inquiries is the same, but the indicators in this supplement are more
directly focused on the policy and procedural concerns important to measuring
sustainability performance in the tour operators’ sector.
• To facilitate responding to the supply chain management indicators, this
supplement includes a classification of suppliers specific to tour operators (see
Annex 2).
• When reporting on stakeholder involvement (Guidelines, Part C, Section 2.9)
reporting companies should refer to the stakeholders listed in this supplement (see
Annex 3). This list is consistent with the general stakeholder structure presented
in the Guidelines, but is further refined to reflect the specific range of
stakeholders relevant to the tour operators’ sector.
