Sustainable Development Strategies and Blueprint
EVA Air’s sustainable development strategy centers on our operational core value “safety, service and sustainability”, and is linked to the economic, social and environmental aspects (ESG) of sustainable development. We have designed our six sustainability strategies to target the 13 SDGs. We aim to ensure safer flights, greener environmental protection, better customer service, and a friendlier workplace environment; and we work together with our stakeholders to create the service environment needed for sustainable aviation. EVA Air encourages our partners to work with us to create sustainable aviation services and realize the dream of becoming a globally influential and iconic airline.
Corporate Sustainability Policy
In order to fulfill corporate sustainable development and actively practice its sustainable development, the Board of Directors passed the
“Corporate Sustainability Best Practice Principles” and the “Corporate Sustainability Policy” declaring our expectations and commitment to ESG and sustainability related issues.

Organization of Sustainable Governance
Realizing the importance of corporate sustainability development, in 2014, EVA Air established the “Corporate Sustainability Committee (CSC).” To strengthen the supervisory and guidance functions of corporate sustainability management, the Board of Directors decided to establish the Sustainability Committee under its jurisdiction in 2022, with the CSC serving as the executing unit for promoting sustainable development and governance within the Company. The President chairs the CSC, and the heads of the different departments and divisions serve as the CSC members.
To strengthen the promotion of ESG, our Company has adopted the guidance of “Action oriented, performance targeted, and sustainability focused.” We adjusted the organizational structure of our CSC, dividing the Committee into nine subcommittees. The CSC meeting is held once every quarter. Each subcommittee conducts comprehensive discussions on all aspects of sustainability, and is responsible for the proposal and implementation of corporate sustainability policies, goals, strategies, relevant management guidelines and specific promotion plans.
A variety of issues are passed on to each responsible team, which communicates with the stakeholders, and sets annual goals for the improvement projects. The specific implementation results of each improvement plan are tracked by the CSC, and execution effectiveness is reported to the Sustainability Committee. At least twice a year, the Committee reports to the Sustainability Committee and Board of Directors on performance achievement.
