Some criteria require a percentage: at least 40 percent of your light sources must be energy-efficient, at least 90 percent of your appliances in the correct energy class, and at least 80 percent of your cleaning products must have an ecolabel. You can’t calculate such a percentage off the top of your head. That’s why those criteria include a worksheet that does the math for you.<\/p>\n\n

How a worksheet works<\/h2>\n\n

You fill in what you have, the worksheet calculates the percentage live, and tells you if you meet the threshold. Then you click Done<\/strong> and three things happen: the corresponding declarations are answered \u2014 including with a no<\/strong> if you are below the threshold \u2014 and your count is saved as a text document and linked to those declarations as proof. You can save your progress at any time.<\/p>\n\n

That last part is the whole point of a worksheet: not just the answer, but also the supporting evidence you can use to defend it.<\/p>\n\n

The seven worksheets<\/h2>\n\n
Worksheet<\/th>Criterion<\/th>What you fill in<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Lighting per room<\/td>8.1, 8.2, 8.3<\/td>The number of light sources per room, how many of them are energy-efficient, and whether the room is lit for more than five hours a day. Calculates the 40 and 50 percent thresholds.<\/td><\/tr>
Energy-efficient appliances<\/td>31.1, 31.2<\/td>Whether you reach 50 or 90 percent per category (cooling, oven, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, vacuum cleaner, office equipment, lamps). The required energy class is listed next to the name.<\/td><\/tr>
Sustainable goods<\/td>52.1<\/td>Categories where at least 40 percent carry an EU Ecolabel or other ISO type I label.<\/td><\/tr>
Paper products<\/td>51<\/td>The five paper categories from the decree.<\/td><\/tr>
Cleaning products and toiletries<\/td>54.1<\/td>Categories where at least 80 percent carry an ecolabel.<\/td><\/tr>
Staff social benefits<\/td>61.1<\/td>Which social benefits your staff receive.<\/td><\/tr>
Eco-friendly means of transport<\/td>63.1<\/td>The three means of transport listed in the decree.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n

A category you don’t have doesn’t count toward the denominator. You fill in eighteen identical rooms as one row with a quantity, not as eighteen separate rows.<\/p>\n\n

A room with many lamps<\/h2>\n\n

The lighting worksheet includes a detail that is easily misunderstood. Criterion 8.3 isn’t about all your lamps, but about the rooms that are lit for more than five hours a day<\/strong>. If you don’t have any such rooms, then that criterion is not applicable and will be marked as met. So only check that box where it’s actually the case.<\/p>\n\n

\n\n

If you don’t meet a threshold, the worksheet will honestly answer ‘no’ and you’ll see the criterion reappear in your points for improvement. This is useful information: it tells you exactly how many lamps or appliances you still need to replace to get there.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

Your goals and next steps<\/h2>\n\n

Criterion 1 includes a different kind of worksheet: not a count, but a list of what you want to achieve. The decree requires an action program with goals (1.3), established at least every two years (1.4). With + Add goal<\/strong>, you set a goal with a title, a target, a target year, at least one theme, and a status update. A goal can take three forms:<\/p>\n\n
