To calculate your Business Travel emissions, you will need to see what data your organisation has available and choose a calculation method accordingly.

Usually, you can collect Business Travel data from your your Finance or Expenses department. Also, try talking to your company’s Travel Manager if you have one.

In the ideal case, the employees at your company book their business travel via your company’s own Business Travel booking tool / travel and expense system. If you have such a system in place, you can most likely export a CSV file and use it for the upload to Plan A with only minor adjustments.

Alternatively, your company may use corporate credit cards that allow you to find the data in one place.

If you don't have a system in place yet to track Business Travel data, consider surveying your employees about their business trips to collect the necessary data.

If you can't access data in the required formats, or have data for travel types not captured in our templates, please take a look at our advice here.
