Our Policy | Aksa Elektrik

Aligned with our corporate objectives, we recognise that maintaining a consistent, effective, and transparent communication framework is essential for attaining global success. Accordingly, our Sustainability Policy has been revised to establish open, transparent, and trustworthy communication with all stakeholders.

This policy, developed with the vision of preserving natural resources for future generations and fostering a more sustainable world, outlines our commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving ‘carbon neutrality’ by the year 2050. The scope of the policy extends to all executives and personnel across all jurisdictions in which our company operates. Within the context of our sustainability strategy, we are establishing the guiding principles, approaches, and governance mechanisms necessary to fulfil our environmental, social, and economic (ESG) objectives.

At Aksa Elektrik, we consider environmental stewardship to be an essential condition for sustainable development and the continued provision of services. Our focus lies in identifying environmental impacts that may occur directly or indirectly from our operations and implementing measures for their improvement and prevention. In this regard, our Sustainability Policy has been adopted in accordance with applicable legal provisions and is grounded in the following core principles:

To operate with the vision of bequeathing a more sustainable world with preserved resources to future generations,

To ensure full compliance with applicable legal and regulatory frameworks related to sustainability in all regions of operation,

In our reporting processes, we utilise the ESG framework developed by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) to disclose our impacts in the areas of human rights, social well-being, corporate governance, and climate change. In this regard, our fundamental corporate approach is to ensure the transparent communication of the implementation of our principles and commitments to all stakeholders. We provide detailed information concerning our sustainability policies through transparent, inclusive, and comprehensive reporting practices.
