Relationship and evidence caveats

Parcelforce Worldwide is the **parcels division of Royal Mail Group Limited** — see the Royal Mail entry, which shares the same ICO registration and privacy notice.

**"Compliant with" is not "certified to".** The Parcelforce/RMG environment policy states the environmental management system is *compliant with* ISO 14001:2015 and the energy management system *compliant with* ISO 50001:2018. Only the Royal Mail sustainability page makes an actual certification statement, and only for ISO 14001.

No ISO 9001, ISO 27001, ISO 45001 or Cyber Essentials evidence found. No security contact, disclosure page or bug bounty found.
