Overview Economy Community People Environment Governance & Risk Disclosure GRI & ADX 85GRI 102-16, 102-17, 102-18, 102-19, 102-28, 103-2 Sustainability governance Ultimate responsibility for Aldar’s sustainability performance rests with the CEO. The CEO is supported by the Chief Financial and Sustainability Officer and the Aldar Sustainability Council, which reports directly into the Executive Management Committee (EMC), a sub-committee of the Board. The Sustainability Council is responsible for informing the EMC about material environmental risks and opportunities. The Council, chaired by Salwa Al Maflahi, Director of Sustainability and CSR, is tasked with accelerating the integration of ESG topics across Aldar Development and Aldar Investment. Our Sustainability Council consists of 23 senior executives from across each business unit, adjacent businesses and all core group functions including Risk Management, Procurement and Human Resources. This ensures representation from key stakeholders who are responsible for implementing our corporate sustainability strategy. The Sustainability Council is responsible for driving the sustainability agenda across all the different businesses within the Aldar Group and supporting the Sustainability & CSR department in implementing the sustainability strategy, carrying out initiatives to increase awareness, improve collaboration and promote sustainability across the business. The Council is also responsible for the development of sustainability policies and oversees Aldar’s overall sustainability performance, providing guidance and recommendations to ensure alignment with stakeholders’ expectations. Cascading sustainability The Sustainability Council has appointed a network of Champions from across Aldar to ensure that sustainability permeates throughout our diverse businesses. Supported by the Sustainability & CSR Department, the Champions promote a wider awareness of sustainability among colleagues and departments, lead the rollout of sustainability initiatives, and report back to the Council on each department’s progress. The Champions are actively encouraged to collaborate on projects and learn more about sustainability issues through workshops and three full days of training in 2020. We have incorporated sustainability into our onboarding process for new employees and deliver awareness events throughout the year so every employee is aware of the role they can play in supporting our sustainability objectives. We have been progressing our sustainability governance practices, with additional resources being brought on board in 2021 to support the Aldar Sustainability Council in leading sustainability implementation at both Aldar Development and Aldar Investment. Business ethics As one of Abu Dhabi’s largest companies, and a leader in the region, we lead by example in upholding high standards of ethical business practice. Compliance with all applicable laws and regulations is a matter of course, and we have developed a comprehensive compliance framework that enables us to navigate increasingly complex legal frameworks, safeguard our business against unethical behaviour, and uphold our reputation. Our Code of Business Conduct is the foundation of our business and culture. It sets out the behaviours and norms employees are expected to follow in their day-to-day activities, to nurture a culture of honesty and accountability, and the standards we hold ourselves accountable to in our dealings with our stakeholders. The Code mandates compliance with relevant legislation and regulations as a minimum standard, and deals with matters such as conflicts of interest, integrity and insider trading, gifts, business entertainment and anti-money laundering. Embedded in the Code is guidance regarding the handling of ethical issues, including internal reporting mechanisms in the event of unethical conduct. It applies to all Aldar operations, and extends to Aldar suppliers, contractors, and consultants. Governance
