Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

The provided articles describe Rightmove's offerings as tools and training for estate agents and property professionals, such as the free Rightmove Plus package

and professional development programs . These activities, including assisting customers with property marketing and enhancing professional skills , do not involve lending, insuring, moving, or storing money, which are the core focus areas of the 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity' value. Consequently, the articles do not provide specific, concrete data points relevant to any of the financial services-centric KPIs in the rubric, leading to their omission.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

Rightmove ensures fair compensation, with all employees earning a minimum of the living wage since its accreditation in January 2020.

Employee engagement is high, with 88% of staff rating Rightmove as a 'great place to work' in 2023. However, a median gender pay gap of 24.3% was reported in 2023. The company also offers a comprehensive benefits package, including a 7% employer pension contribution and share schemes. In 2024, Rightmove invested in employee development, providing 13,073 hours of training at an average cost of £523 per employee.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

Rightmove PLC has limited direct involvement in physical supply chains due to its digital services focus.

Consequently, the company does not procure or trade physical commodities, nor does it have a supplier base requiring welfare or sourcing audits, supply chain tiers to map, or material sourcing of at-risk inputs.

Honest & Fair Business

No specific, quantifiable evidence was found in the provided articles to assess Rightmove PLC against the defined KPIs for 'Honest & Fair Business'. While the company has a 'Speak up'/Whistleblowing Policy with a third-party facility overseen by the Audit Committee

, and an Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy with zero reported instances in 2023 and clear gift thresholds , the evidence does not provide the specific quantitative metrics (e.g., resolution times, training frequency, audit coverage percentages, or benchmark scores) required to assign a score to any of the KPIs in the rubric.

Kind to Animals

Rightmove PLC operates as an online real estate portal, a service-oriented business. Its operations do not involve animal testing, animal agriculture, or the production of animal-derived products. Consequently, KPIs related to cruelty-free certification, alternative testing methods, humane operations, ethical input substitution, supplier audits, cage-free sourcing, animal testing policies and volume, innovation investment in animal-free technologies, animal agriculture ethics, animal-free R&D collaboration, and public policy engagement on animal welfare are not applicable to its business model. While the company has supported ecological conservation efforts, such as UK tree planting in wildlife trust areas since 2019

and partnered with the RSPB in 2013 to promote wildlife-friendly gardens , the provided evidence does not include measurable biodiversity impact, species recovery, habitat restoration metrics, or specific financial commitments required for scoring the wildlife conservation impact KPI.

No War, No Weapons

Rightmove PLC operates exclusively in digital property advertising and civilian real estate services, with no affiliation or involvement in military contracts, arms manufacturing, or conflict facilitation.

This means the company has no revenue from arms contracts, no dual-use technology, no sales to embargoed regimes, and no exposure to controversial weapons. The company also has no defense business to oversee, no exports requiring certification, no defense-related lobbying, no conflict-region operations, and is not subject to the Arms Trade Treaty. There is no evidence of any AI systems being used militarily, dual-use portfolios, surveillance activities, or ethical red lines related to weapons. Similarly, there are no defense assets to divest, no mineral inputs, no applicable technology development for peace tech, and no procurement from conflict zones. However, the company demonstrates no active engagement in peacebuilding initiatives or the development of products aimed at reducing conflict.

Planet-Friendly Business

Rightmove's total Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions in 2024 were 7,051.56 tCO2e, an increase of 4.91% from 6,721.64 tCO2e in 2023.

As a pure services provider, its overall water consumption is minimal, with 1,380 m³ in 2024 against £389.9m revenue, equating to 3.539 m³ per £1M revenue.

Rightmove has validated near-term and Net Zero Science-Based Targets with the SBTi, aiming to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 47.6% and Scope 3 emissions by 42% by 2030, from a 2020 base year.

In 2024, 92% of the electricity directly consumed by the Group's offices and data centres was sourced from renewable energy. Rightmove is in its second year of reporting under the TCFD framework, with climate-related financial disclosures consistent with TCFD Recommendations.

Respect for Cultures & Communities

Rightmove PLC's business model as a digital property advertising platform means that several aspects of direct cultural impact are not applicable. The company has no direct involvement in indigenous rights or cultural preservation.

, and its operations do not typically impact cultural contexts or sites. Consequently, there are no reported cultural appropriation incidents, no specific cultural impact assessment protocol, and FPIC processes are not applicable. The company also does not operate near cultural sites in a way that would cause disruption, and therefore has no cultural incidents requiring a response. While Rightmove engages in corporate giving and diversity and inclusion training, these initiatives do not explicitly target cultural heritage or specific cultural sensitivity components.

Safe & Smart Tech

Rightmove has established an AI Committee, an acceptable usage policy, and an AI Register to govern AI use

, explicitly stating AI is not used for automated decisions with legal effect and applying safeguards like data minimization and human involvement for fairness .
