- Current SBT emissions are at the same level as the 2019 baseline year, meaning the 2030 SBT is not on track.
- Three work-related fatal incidents involving contractors/third parties.
- Data quality concerns regarding supplier-reported emissions reductions.
- Accuracy challenges in emission allocations.
