Stories of Success
Our Employees Live Aptiv's Values Because we know that we can't achieve our mission without them.
Here are some examples.
EMPLOYEE SURVEY
Identified a third-party surveying tool and developed processes to give employees a private online global platform to assess interactions with their supervisors. The employee survey launched in January 2022.
PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT
Continued to incorporate our sustainability objectives into the compensation of our executives, subjecting executive bonuses to a ±10% modification based on sustainability progress.
SUSTAINABLE ACCOUNTABILITY

For one OEM, we identified products that source a high volume of single-use plastics and worked with the customer to begin eliminating unnecessary plastic wrappers for an entire product line.
