IFRS S2 for Industrial Manufacturing with Workday: Data Integration 2026
IFRS S2 is the climate-specific standard adopted by CNBV as mandatory for all BMV and BIVA issuers starting January 2025, making Mexico the first country in North America to implement IASB's ISSB standards. Companies must report GHG emissions across all three scopes, conduct climate scenario analysis, and disclose how climate change impacts their strategy and financial model. Limited assurance of the report by an external auditor will be required starting with the 2027 reporting cycle.
Workday is exceptionally strong in social and governance data — the S and G pillars of ESG — but has no physical operations modules, so environmental data (emissions, water, waste) must be complemented from other sources. Climatta uses the Workday REST API to automatically extract the 12 NIS B-1 social indicators and combines them with environmental data from complementary sources, giving financial and services corporates a complete solution without forcing Workday data outside its domain.
Data Already in Your Workday
Your Workday already has most of the data IFRS S2 requires. Climatta extracts it automatically without manual work.
| IFRS S2 Requirement | Workday Module | Available |
|---|---|---|
| Reporting of GHG emissions Scope 1, 2, and 3 (full value chain) in metric tons of CO₂ equivalent | HCM (Human Capital Management) | ✅ |
| Climate scenario analysis aligned to TCFD using at least 1.5°C and 2°C as reference pathways | Financials | ✅ |
| Identification and quantification of physical risks (chronic and acute) and transition risks | Prism Analytics | ✅ |
| Disclosure of emissions reduction targets, including net-zero goals with interim milestones | Payroll | ⚠️ |
| Description of how climate risks and opportunities affect business model, strategy, and cash flows | Adaptive Planning | ⚠️ |
Complete social indicators for NIS B-1: exact headcount, voluntary and involuntary turnover, accident rate, and absenteeism from HCM
Gender pay gap and compensation equity by hierarchical level from Payroll for the IBSO equity indicator
Training hours per employee and category from HCM Learning for the human capital development indicator
Consolidated financial data from Financials and Adaptive Planning for ESG intensity normalization by revenue
Why Excel from Workday Will Not Pass the 2027 Assurance
No audit trail: the auditor cannot trace the data back to its source in Workday
Formula error risk: one miscalculated cell invalidates the entire report
No change history: impossible to demonstrate data integrity over time
Workday → Excel → report = 3 manual transformations with no governance control
