Environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) practices are embedded in our business and form an essential component of our decision-making.

Air Canada aims to make meaningful connections and to care for and elevate one another, as Citizens of the World. Achieving our sustainability goals requires that we continue to apply and develop principles and approaches to help us translate aspiration into action. These include looking at cost-effective measures, using natural, social and economic resources in a responsible and efficient manner, fostering openness and transparency, embracing diversity, equity and inclusion, encouraging collaboration and setting and meeting measurable targets.

Air Canada suppliers are an extension of Air Canada. As such, it is imperative that our suppliers adhere to the Corporation’s Supplier Code of Conduct and align their behaviours to Air Canada standards and support the achievement of its sustainability goals.

Air Canada’s is a key component of our sustainable procurement strategy.

The Supplier Code of Conduct (the Code) is principle based and sets out our expectations of suppliers with a goal of aligning supplier behaviours to Air Canada standards in these key areas: business integrity; responsible business practices; responsible treatment of individuals; and respect for the environment. All suppliers are expected to adhere to the Code, which promotes transparency and accountability in Air Canada’s supply chain.
