On this page, you can find a link to the Chair’s statement. This statement is produced pursuant to Regulation 23 of the Occupational Pension Schemes (Scheme Administration) Regulations 1996, as amended by subsequent legislation and explains how the Toyota (GB) Retirement Benefits Plan (1979) is meeting the governance standards that apply to occupational pension schemes that provide money purchase benefits (i.e. Defined Contribution schemes – DC).
Since the 1980s, European new car emissions and fuel economy tests have been carried out using the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC). From 1 September 2017, a new test has been introduced, the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), to give both car buyers and owners a more realistic understanding of a car's performance.
The European Union has developed a new test called the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) which came into effect on 1st September 2017 for new type approvals and 1 September 2018 for all vehicles. This will replace the current New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) test procedure for establishing the official Fuel Consumption and CO2 emissions of new cars.
The new WLTP laboratory test will also be supplemented by an emissions test that measures pollutants directly on the road: RDE (Real Driving Emissions) and was brought in to the new testing regime to provide a closer representation of ‘real-world’ fuel consumption and CO2 figures and provide model specific values at the point of sale.
Source: http://wltpfacts.eu
This takes place on real roads, the RDE test compliments lab tests by measuring that a car delivers low pollutant emissions on the road.
Real driving emission (RDE) tests will measure the pollutants, such as NOx, emitted by cars while driven on the road. RDE will not replace laboratory tests, such as the current NEDC and the future WLTP but it will be additional to them. Europe is the first region in the world to introduce such on-the-road testing, marking a major leap in the testing of car emissions.
The new WLTP tests will ensure that lab measurements now better reflect the situations you will experience in everyday life. This means that fuel consumption and emissions values displayed for new cars are a far better representation of what you are actually likely to achieve.
At Toyota, we welcome the change to WLTP, which will provide our customers with a more accurate basis for calculating fuel economy and emissions. As a leader in clean mobility, we’ve spent decades researching how to make vehicles that are kinder to the environment, producing technologies such as hybrid that have proved their value in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and helping the move towards a low carbon society.
“Hybrid is the backbone of our powertrain programme and will help us cut our vehicle carbon emissions by 90% by 2050 compared to 2010.”
- Dr. Johan van Zyl, President and CEO of Toyota Motor Europe
With advances in vehicle technology and changes in driving conditions, the near-40-year-old NEDC driving cycle test has been replaced. To give you a more accurate way of calculating and comparing a car’s fuel consumption and emissions, the new WLTP test introduces more realistic testing conditions, so that lab measurements better reflect the on-road performance of a car.
Dynamic tests which are more representative of real-driving behaviour
23.25 kilometres long, over twice the old distance
Additional vehicle options (impacting CO2 and consumption) are taken into account
Each vehicle has different, rather than fixed, gear shift points
Test lasts 30 minutes, an increase of 10 minutes
More dynamic phases: 52% urban and 48% non-urban
Average speed is 46.5km/h (an increase of 12.5km/h) while top speed is raised to 131km/h
Measurements now taken at 23ºC (and CO2 values corrected to 14ºC) vs 20-30ºC.
WLTP will facilitate a better means of assessing how high the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions of the vehicle may be on average. At the same time, however, more realistic values will also mean higher consumption and CO2 values for vehicles with combustion engines and a lower electric range for electric vehicles (including plug-in hybrids). These new tests will not have any effect or change the performance of the vehicle.
As Toyota transition to WLTP the following type approval timings will apply:
Commercial and Passenger vehicles (types M1 and N1 (i)):
From 1st April 2020 WLTP CO2 figures will be used to calculate your vehicles first year VED tax payment, often referred to as VED – please visit the government vehicle tax rates page for a full listing of vehicle tax rates from 1st April 2020. From 6th April 2020, WLTP CO2 figures will be used for company car tax purposes – please visit the government rates and allowances page for full listing of company car tax rates from 6th April 2020.
WLTP is also used to measure substances such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC) and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particles (PM/PN).
WLTP certification is mandatory for all light commercial vehicles from 1 September 2019.

Toyota (GB) PLC ("TGB") and Toyota Financial Services (UK) PLC ("TFS") together ("we") ("us"), continue to implement and endorse responsible business practices to ensure compliance with applicable modern slavery law and to uphold the integrity of our brands, 'Toyota' and 'Lexus'. This is our sixth joint statement under s.54 of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 ("the Act") and it sets out the actions we have taken to prevent modern slavery and human trafficking within our businesses and supply chain since our last statement was published in September 2020.
We work closely with our UK manufacturing operations, Toyota Motor Manufacturing (UK) Limited (TMUK"), to share best practice and experience. We are continuing to publish TMUK's statement on the TGB website alongside our own to ensure customers, suppliers and other stakeholders have transparency in understanding our approach to this area.
Toyota is one of the leading automobile manufacturers in the World. The two core pillars of Toyota's culture are Respect for People and Continuous Improvement (or "kaizen").
Toyota grows as a company year on year. As we develop, so does our vision. Our partnership with the Olympic and Paralympic games demonstrates our passion for human movement and underpins our commitment to mobility, enabling us to deliver our aim of improved quality of life and ultimately achieve our goal of building a better tomorrow.
As a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corporation ("TMC"), TGB focuses primarily on the marketing and sales of Toyota and Lexus vehicles in the UK, managing our franchise retail network, and supporting customers. While the majority of our vehicles are sold through our franchise retail network we also sell directly to customers through our online channels and to fleet customers such as a public sector organisations and other large corporates. Additionally, we manage relationships with our aftermarket suppliers who provide parts and accessories to our customers. Consequently, we must ensure that these suppliers share our values and uphold the integrity of our Brands to facilitate our vision of a better tomorrow.
TFS is a subsidiary of Toyota Financial Services Corporation and ultimately of TMC. It provides a range of finance, credit and hire products and solutions for customers purchasing Toyota vehicles, Lexus vehicles and other brand vehicles. TFS also partners with an insurer, administrator and the dealership network to offer specific insurance types covering the asset value of vehicles and covering small accident repair.
The term “Modern Slavery” encompasses the offences of slavery, servitude and forced or compulsory labour; and human trafficking.
A common misconception about modern slavery revolves around the idea that victims are primarily non-UK nationals. In 2020, “Unseen” a UK-wide modern slavery charity reported that 26% of victims trafficked in the UK were British, while 16% were Albanian and 8% Vietnamese.
Despite the challenges to identify modern slavery, there are some general indicators which, whilst not conclusive, may help identify potential victims. A person's physical appearance may indicate signs of physical or psychological harm, as well as looking malnourished and unkept. Additionally, they may be isolated from others and reluctant to seek help; not allowed to travel on their own or appear to be in relationships that do not appear right. They may have few possessions including a lack of identification documents. Further, they may work and live at the same address and live in dirty, cramped or overcrowded accommodation.
Victims of modern slavery may be threatened or coerced into working and be unable to leave without fear of repercussions.
As the ultimate parent company of TGB and TFS, TMC set the company direction and fundamental principles; consisting of conducting our business with honesty and integrity, respecting people, and maintaining good relationships with stakeholders through open and fair communication. At national level, TGB and TFS ensure this approach is adopted and cascaded by senior management and implemented by our respective businesses and supply chain.
Over the past year we have continued to work directly with TMC, holding regular meetings to discuss current developments and share ideas and best practice in the area of modern slavery. This has been crucial for engagement and importantly has enabled us to further influence the enhancement of ethical practices within the business.
Moving forward we will continue to increase our focus on supply chain sustainability. TGB and TFS’ focus on the sales, marketing and financing of Toyota and Lexus vehicles, as opposed to the manufacturing of them means that we have different supply chains to other parts of the Toyota Family, and thus different considerations when it comes to addressing risks of modern slavery.
TFS’s business is the provision of financial services, it does not actively source or distribute physical goods as part of its primary activities. TFS is aware of its responsibilities towards modern slavery within its business and operating model particularity in the selection of its partners and its own service providers.
To affirm our position on modern slavery, we maintain a Modern Slavery Policy which is reviewed, updated and approved by each Board of Directors annually.
Our Modern Slavery Policy provides a clear, robust and accessible framework for all staff to observe and adhere to. As well as reflecting legislative requirements, the policy acknowledges our corporate approach to being a good corporate citizen and to acting ethically, and with integrity. The same standards are expected of our suppliers and partners. Setting a high standard for our key stakeholders to maintain, allows us to conduct business in an open and honest way. We require all staff and our suppliers to abide by our policies and act responsibly in their commercial dealings to enable the organisations to foster an ethical corporate culture.
Additionally, in the upcoming financial year, we intend to release the “Unseen” app allowing our staff to further develop their knowledge of modern slavery in a digitally accessible manner.
As a company we are proud of the comprehensive training we provide to our staff. All staff are required to complete mandatory e-learning training on this topic annually. In the last financial year, when our workforce was predominantly home-based, we promoted the topic internally and e-learning continued. The training equips all staff with the awareness and skills to identify and report any acts of modern slavery both within and outside of the workplace.
Our Whistleblowing Policy provides all staff with a simple process for reporting any suspected instances of modern slavery infringements. The policy outlines how an individual may raise concerns through internal channels such as the Legal department or through our external and independent helpline. Our staff can choose to report any incidences anonymously.
When engaging with a supplier we undertake a number of checks. In all cases checks are carried out on their financial status. Suppliers are also expected to meet a certain score threshold in due-diligence reviews, enabling us to identify potential weaknesses in their respective systems and processes.
In collaboration with TMC we are looking at how we continue to evolve our risk assessment, for instance, further developing our due diligence process.
TFS consider and assess any risks in its services supply chain. It’s appointed distributors’ responsibilities and obligations toward modern slavery are reflected clearly in their contracts of appointment. TFS has continued with its initiative and strategy to research and introduce an enhanced vendor onboarding management system to state and streamline controls as a plan for next year. A key objective in the down selecting of external vendors is to input a more detailed vendor onboarding system and process, and to include enhanced ‘know your vendor’ checks.
Since the 11" of March 2021, the UK government requires all businesses to upload their annual modern slavery statement on the Government Modern Slavery Statement Registry . On here you will see a copy of TGB and TFS’ joint statement. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and difficult financial times, we have maintained robust systems to check the status of our vendors from a modern slavery perspective. It's been more important than ever to ensure that our business remains vigilant.
The terms and conditions on which we engage with our suppliers enables us to remain in control in the event of a supplier infringing modern slavery legislation.
TGB ensures that high standards of ethical conduct are reflected within its supply chain by placing contractual obligations on all suppliers to comply with the Act. Specifically, these obligations include complying with all anti-slavery and human trafficking laws, maintaining their own policies and procedures and reporting any incidents or suspected incidents to TGB. Our approach not only requires that our suppliers hold themselves accountable but also requires they hold any subcontractors or other participants in their supply chain accountable to ensure the prevention of modern slavery. This is achieved through implementing the requirement that they undertake annual auditing to prove their compliance with the Act.
Looking forward, we will continue to develop our T&C's to ensure that they are always up to date and afford maximum protection.
Despite the restraints of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the year to March 2021 we succeeded in completing our supplier audit programme. In the upcoming financial year, we will look to build upon this by enhancing our audit programme, conducting a minimum of 3 audits before March 2022 and expanding our programme further to focus on a broader range of suppliers. In order to successfully do so, we are continually looking to improve our approach. TGB’s internal audit and procurement teams will continually shape the methodology matrix and audit checklist whilst selecting and assessing key suppliers based on risk profile.
We aim to expand our audit capabili in this area through using the internationally recognised SEDEX as a best practice benchmark to find the most successful business- wide approach post COVID-19. In the spirit of continuous improvement, we aim to support our suppliers by sharing audit reports and working with them to enhance their business processes.
Since the 11th of March 2021, the UK government requires all businesses to upload their annual modern slavery statement on the Government Modern Slavery Statement Registry. On here you will see copy of TGB and TFS' joint statement.
This statement is approved on behalf of Toyota (GB) PLC and Toyota Financial Services (UK) PLC with signed versions being held and stored securely
Augustin Martin, President and Managing Director Toyota (GB) PLC and Francis Kenny, Managing Director and CEO Toyota Financial Services (UK) PLC
Date of Signature: 29th September 2021
Toyota (GB) PLC is the sales and marketing company for Toyota and Lexus in the UK.
We wholeheartedly believe that diversity is critical to our future success. We look for input, impact and innovation from a range of talented people, irrespective of age, gender, race, religion or any other personal characteristic.
We pay men and women the same for work of equal value, and we regularly carry out internal and external benchmarking to ensure that this continues to be the case. We have a legacy Gender Pay Gap, but are taking proactive steps to ensure that, without discrimination of any kind, we continue to close the gap and help all our employees fulfil their maximum potential.
Our employees have consistently told us that they have Extraordinary levels of engagement, as measured by the Best Companies to Work For list. We are proud to have maintained this level over a number of years, and to have featured in the Sunday Times Top 100 list every year since 2015.
We want to be a company that people choose to work for, and choose to stay with. Our staff retention and engagement levels show that people love working here, and value the development and investment that they receive over the course of their career with TGB. We are continuing to develop the best possible employee experience, to enable everyone to be their best at work.
Equal Pay is the right for men and women to be paid the same, when doing the same or equivalent work.
The Gender Pay Gap is the average percentage difference between all men’s and all women's hourly pay, regardless of their role or level.
Traditionally the automotive industry has been less attractive to women, meaning that we need to work harder to attract female talent. We are consciously reviewing the way that we advertise vacancies to ensure that we do not inadvertently discourage women from applying.
We have increased the use of social media platforms to help people outside TGB to understand the type of employer we are, what we offer, and how we can help them to be their best.
We continue to link with external organisations to support our work, including the 30% club and the Automotive 30% club, as well as investing in ongoing development to enable our female employees to address any barriers to developing their careers. These internal and external networks help us to share knowledge and best practice, as well as to attract, engage, develop and retain great talent, increasing the levels of women in our business.
We want TOYOTA (GB) PLC to be an Employer of Choice as a company that people choose to work for and that people are happy to have chosen.
It is critical, therefore, that we continue to improve our gender mix by ensuring we attract more female candidates, and encourage and facilitate a higher proportion of women progressing through the organisation, which inevitably will close the Gender Pay Gap.
Our aspiration, therefore, without any form of positive discrimination, is for 30% of senior roles to be filled by women by 2030.
The information in TGB’s Gender Pay Gap Report comes from a data snapshot taken on 5th April of the relevant year. This information is a fair and accurate representation of TGB’s Gender Pay Gap.
Paul Van der Burgh, President & Managing Director, Toyota (GB) PLC
