Global sustainability
The Global Sustainability Officer, reporting directly to the CFO, is responsible for defining the Group's sustainability strategy and the integration of sustainability issues inside the company and along its entire value chain.
This implies multiple projects and plans, ranging from our broad sustainability strategy to more specific ones, such as our CO2 emission reduction plan, which all in all aim to set our company up for a successful and sustainable future.
The corresponding targets and goals being set within these strategies also serve to guide the companies’ and our teams’ activities.

HENSOLDT's sustainability strategy is based on three essential dimensions: Environmental responsibility (“E”), Social responsibility (“S”), and Governance responsibility (“G”). These dimensions are concretized through five strategic pillars to ensure comprehensive action.
