Environmental, Social & Governance Committee Terms of Reference

This is a template terms of reference for an Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) committee of the board. In putting in place an ESG strategy as well as various ESG practices, policies and procedures, a company may wish to delegate these tasks to a committee. To regulate the committee’s conduct and set the parameters for how it should operate, it is often useful to put in place terms of reference.

These terms of reference set out amongst other things, the purpose of the committee, its membership, quorum, the structure of its meeting and its duties. For companies with model articles, article 6 permits delegation of the board’s powers to a committee.

These terms of reference form part of a suite of templates relating to Environmental, Social & Governance matters.
