Nielsen details commitments and goals in new 2022 ESG Report; champions transparency, integrity, counting every voice and making a positive community impact
Nielsen recently released its 2022 Nielsen ESG Report, a progress report on how the company prioritizes environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues such as climate change; diversity, equity and inclusion; employee engagement; business integrity and societal trust in the media.
Nielsen champions transparency, integrity, counting every voice and making a positive impact in its communities through its ESG commitments. In a year of evolution and change, Nielsen reviewed its existing ESG focus areas and updated or established a range of new goals to be achieved by 2024.
The 2024 goals include:

This ESG report, Nielsen’s first full report since the sale of Nielsen Global Connect was completed in 2021, also includes highlights across its six main ESG topic areas of diversity, equity and inclusion, human capital, governance, data privacy and security, environment, and communities. These highlights include:
Nielsen’s ESG report also provides an Appendix with supplemental data and information aligned with the reporting frameworks most relevant to the company: the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).
