AJW signs declaration of support for UN Global Compact

AJW Group has announced it is committing to implement universal sustainability principles and to take steps to support UN goals with its participation in the the world’s largest global corporate sustainability initiative, United Nations Global Compact (UNGC).

Christopher Whiteside, Chairman of AJW Group commented: “Announcing our participation in the UN Global Contract is a pivotal moment for our company, one our founder would be proud of. This heralds a new era of commitment to sustainability as we fly towards our centenary in 2032.”

The UNGC’s vision is to ‘mobilise a global movement of sustainable companies and stakeholders to create the world we want.’ It has implemented a strategy to drive business awareness and action in support of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.

UNGC will support AJW Group in its continuing efforts to operate the business responsibly, aligning its strategies and operations with the UNGC’s Ten Principles on human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption. It will take strategic actions to advance broader societal goals, such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals, with an emphasis on collaboration and innovation.

AJW is committed to sustainable business practices and is participating in the UNGC as part of its efforts to bring about a more earth and people-friendly aviation industry. By signing the declaration, the Group hopes others will follow suit, and together industry stakeholders can unite for the good of the planet, its people, and its communities.
