About this report

Corporate information

Welcome to Bombardier's Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, which becomes more relevant and timely with each passing year.

Bombardier is many things: global company and family business, aircraft manufacturer and innovator, service provider and defense player. Across all our activities, we are strongly committed to being a responsible corporate citizen. As you'll see in this report, Bombardier's action plan is comprehensive, transparent and measurable.

The importance of good governance is deeply ingrained in Bombardier's culture. We have a proud heritage as a family company, and our team members genuinely care about our stakeholders and the communities where we operate. This philosophy is true at all levels, including the Board of Directors, which plays an active role in Bombardier's ESG strategy. A committee of Board members reviews and approves this report, and receives regular progress updates throughout the year.

Our senior executives are also involved, as champions of our ESG initiatives and ambassadors of our values. Adding to this, team member participation across the organization is key: not only do our people embrace our goals, they are extremely proud that Bombardier is building a greener future for aviation.

As you'll see in these pages, we're making excellent progress together.

I'm pleased to present Bombardier's latest Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, which shows our impressive progress in 2023. We believe that how we do business is just as important as the results we achieve.

You'll read about many accomplishments in these pages. We're giving shape to the next generation of business jets with our EcoJet research project, which entered a new phase in 2023. Meanwhile, we published Environmental Product Declarations for two more aircraft in our existing portfolio, the Bombardier Global 5500 and Global 6500. Throughout 2023, Bombardier purchased Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for all its flight operations through a Book-and-Claim system, which contributed to reducing our environmental footprint.

Our 18,000 team members are incredibly proud that Bombardier is building a greener future for business aviation. In fact, engagement was another highlight for Bombardier in 2023 as our employee survey yielded an overall engagement score of 79%, surpassing our goal of 75% for 2025. This positive result validates our efforts to be a world-class employer prioritizing safety, ethics, diversity, inclusion and community giving.

I'm also pleased to confirm that Bombardier renewed its pledge toward the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact. We also continued our progress on the seven United Nations Sustainability Goals where we have the greatest impact.

I trust you'll agree that the accomplishments in this report demonstrate our enduring commitment to sustainable development.
