SUMMARY
INTEGRATED REPORT / JSL 2021
ASSURANCE
REPORT
With the guidelines of the Sustainability
Committee, the company develops the
Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) Emission
Management Program, focused on identifying
the biggest challenges and opportunities.
for the logistics sector. As a signatory of the
United Nations Global Compact, JSL, through
the holding SIMPAR, is part of the group
of companies that take part in the Climate
Action platform, which is focused on the
development of activities and projects aimed
at mitigation, adaptation and implementation
means related to climate changes.
In 2021, the mapping of risks and opportunities
associated with climate change was
reassessed by the Sustainability area,
concomitant with SIMPAR's goal of reducing
the intensity of emissions by 15% by 2030.
In addition to the inclusion of scope 1 and 2
emissions, directly related to the company,
scope 3 emissions were included, which
reiterates the relevance of the topic in the
company's management and strategy.
LOW CARBON ALTERNATIVES
Aware of its challenges, JSL analyzes different
alternatives to increase its operational efficiency and/
or reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, increasing
the use of renewables. In synergy with in-depth
studies on the subject, JSL plans to carry out tests
with alternative vehicles in 2022 and, thus, through
the collection of data and scientific results, decision-
making will consider projects that demonstrably
contribute to the reduction of emissions and that are
also economically viable. Among the measures under
study, the electrification of urban distribution trucks
and charter buses, the adoption of biomethane-
powered trucks, the increase in the percentage of
biodiesel in diesel and telemetry in 100% of the fleet
of heavy vehicles and trucks stand out, powered by
CNG (natural gas for vehicles).
Seeking to engage its customers in projects
and actions aimed at reducing the impact of its
operations, the company adopts several low-carbon
solutions. Among them, the optimization of routes
and reduction of empty cargo trips; vehicles with
low average age; economic driving training; use of
telemetry and electric forklifts. Also in this direction,
JSL identified the need to establish strategic
partnerships in R&D with vehicle manufacturers to
enable the production and testing of electric, hybrid
or less polluting fuel vehicles.
JSL works with its own fleet of trucks with an average
age of 3.3 years, compared to the national average
of 20 years. The company also encourages replacing
vehicles with those of independent contractor and
third-party drivers.
In 2021, the company received the Gold Seal in the
Brazilian GHG Protocol Program, of which it has been
a member since 2019 to understand, quantify and
manage GHG emissions.
It also advanced in the classification of the latest
Disclosure Insight Action - CDP cycle, evolving from
the D to B-
