Protecting the Environment
We are embedding sustainability into our core business processes of design, sourcing and manufacturing operations to meet the needs of our employees, customers and communities — both now and in the future. We are committed to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius and are a proud supporter of the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP).
Our goal is to be reliant on 100% renewable electricity at our manufacturing sites globally by 2035, and we aspire to reach carbon neutrality at our manufacturing sites for scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 2040.
People and Communities
Our people are our top priority. That includes our employees, suppliers and customers — and the communities in which they live and work. We will continue to work to protect the human rights, health and safety of our people while fostering an inclusive culture that values diversity.
We are committed to respecting the UN Global Compact’s 10 Principles, including the six principles on human rights and labor, and we understand that our excellence as a company depends on creating and sustaining a work environment where our employees feel valued and respected for who they are.
Additional information about our commitment to respecting and upholding human rights is available in our Human Rights Policy Statement.
Governance and Compliance
We are committed to operating our business ethically and in accordance with Adient’s policies as well as applicable laws and regulations. Our Ethics Policy sets the standard for how we operate and provides the ethical framework for our organization.
