Our sustainability governance model This involves the Executive Leadership Team Committee and the Group Sustainability and ESG Committee, which is chaired by the Executive Director of the Low Carbon Solutions & International Growth Directorate and works with dedicated teams across our operations. Overall accountability for sustainability within ADNOC lies with the MD & GCEO. Our sustainability management approach was established based on corporate governance principles and management systems that integrate economic, environmental and social considerations into our decision-making processes. Sustainability-related issues are integrated into our business strategy, business planning, risk management and performance review processes. Our performance management framework translates our strategies into tangible and measurable indicators of performance, and results which include safety, environment, people, profitability, compliance, risk management and business performance. The different ADNOC business lines and Group companies are accountable for executing our sustainability ambitions and for ensuring effective management of related risks and performance. Corporate and technical functions, across different disciplines, provide support and advice to the business lines. These include HSE, Human Capital (HC), Enterprise Risk Management, and Legal, Governance and Compliance (LGC). These central functions are responsible for ensuring they deliver against their defined objectives, setting the strategic direction and developing governing policies and processes to support sustainability objectives across the business lines. A corporate sustainability and climate function oversees the execution of our sustainability strategy and reports on environmental, social and governance performance to the Executive Leadership Team Committee. It also advises business lines and functions on the effectiveness of their implementation strategies in meeting our long-term targets, and in driving programs aimed at enhancing our sustainability performance. We have implemented a governance model that aligns with our business strategy and goals. 98
