Aviation is an industry where labor and working conditions are subject to detailed national and international regulations. The applicability of working conditions may vary for different groups of employees. To address these issues, we established an HR organization with dedicated HR experts collaborating with different business units. All main labor/HR issues are governed by an independent HR department that reports directly to the CEO; while all work is carried out in collaboration with the relevant business units. A robust and effective set of internal controls, internal audit and process oversight is in place. Plus, ethical governance is carried out by a structure acting independently from the business units and HR. In terms of OH&S, we carry ISO 45001 certification. Internal effectiveness of all these mechanisms and awareness across the organization is ensured through trainings, policy and process reviews, audit processes and compliance/certification reviews by independent certifying entities and/or regulatory bodies.Environment

Oceans, Forests/Biodiversity/Land Use are not regarded as material impact areas for our operations.3. What type of action has the company taken in the reporting period with the aim of preventing/mitigating the risks/impacts associated with these environmental topics?
Optional commentWe set long term targets and report on climate change-related matters. We do CORSIA, EU ETS, UK ETS, CDP reporting. Climate-related industry regulations and the significant financial burden of fuel consumption motivates us to invest in new technologies and emission reduction initiatives. Based on our 2050 net zero target, we are moving to technologies that emit less GHG emissions, especially through our aircraft fleet transitioning into new generation aircraft. In March 2022, we had our first domestic flight with blended Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), and aim to increase its usability in the future if it can be supplied. In June 2022, we completed our first targeted carbon-offsetting project, extending our ability to address neutralizing the impact of residual carbon emissions from our operations. Oceans, Forests/Biodiversity/Land Use are not regarded as material impact areas for our operations.4. How does the company assess progress in preventing/mitigating the risks/impacts associated with the following environmental topics?
Optional commentWe report our progress on environmental targets on an annual basis. We set emission reduction targets and proceed in line with these targets. Since October 2021, we also report our monthly carbon emissions from our flight operations compared to previous year performance. We report waste regularly and recycle 99.96% of our waste. We also follow the greenhouse gases that cause air pollution with our annual CDP reports. Since we create air pollution from transportation and our fuel use is the biggest source of air pollution, we develop projects on fuel reduction and carry out improvement studies in this regard.

In the course of the reporting period, has the company been involved in providing or enabling remedy for any actual impacts associated with the following environmental issue(s)?
Optional commentAircraft fuel and greenhouse gases represent a significant majority of our environmental impact. For this reason, greenhouse gas and emission reduction are our priority action areas for improvement. Our in-house monitoring and improvement studies continue within the scopes that are appropriate in other areas.Climate Action
6. What were the company’s gross global greenhouse gas emissions for the reporting period?
Scope 2 Emissions
Scope 3 Emissions
Optional commentScope 1: 1,245,098.59 metric tons CO2e, Scope 2: 3,463.37 metric tons CO2e, Scope 3: 258,748.13 metric tons CO2e. 99.44% of our Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions come from our Jet A1 fuel consumption. This is why, when calculating the Scope 3 Category 3 GHG emissions, we only included the well to tank emissions of our Jet Fuel consumption. 100% of the activity data was collected from our fuel suppliers. To calculate this figure, we used the well to tank emission factors published by DEFRA (Conversion Factors 2020 Full Set for Advanced Users). Jet A1 consumption figures are multiplied with WTT emission factors in order to calculate WTT GHG emissions of the fuels used on our aircraft. The calculation was conducted according to the methodology outlined in the GHG Protocol Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting Standard.6.1. Which Scope 3 categories are included in the organization’s scope 3 emissions calculation?

Optional commentWe get water locally from municipalities and internationally from the administration that supplies water to airports. There is no notification from the water supply units and administrations that water is being drawn from water stress areas, or there is no limit communicated about water stress concerns. Therefore, we do not have any information or expenditure regarding water stress or water intensity about products and water consumption.Overall Environment

We continue our environment actions within the framework of our Corporate Sustainability Policy, ISO 14001, Our 2050 Net Zero Target and 2030 Carbon Intensity Reduction Target and our voluntary and non-voluntary disclosure and reporting based on CDP, CORSIA, EU ETS and UK ETS. Main environement actions include carbon emissions reduction management through numerous initiatives ranging from fleet transition to the use of SAF, waste management, efficiency projects, supplier oversight, carbon offsetting. As an airline, our environmental activities often relate to emissions management. Our activities in water, energy use and other environmental dimensions are limited by the industry circumstances in which we operate.Anti-corruption
