Sustainability Supports Our Mission
For Aptiv, sustainability is a strategic enabler of innovation, operational excellence and long-term value creation. It supports our mission to deliver technologies that people can rely on when it matters most — solutions strengthened by rigorous testing and validation, resilient operations, ethical business practices and the ability to scale advanced technologies across industries.
As a global industrial technology company, we apply our expertise in software, hardware, sensing, compute and connection systems to help customers solve their toughest challenges at the intelligent edge. Our sustainability strategy supports that work by helping us operate responsibly, innovate with purpose and advance a more automated, electrified and digitalized future.

Four Strategic Sustainability Pillars: People, Products, Planet and Platform
Aptiv recognizes that sustainability is an ongoing journey. Our progress depends on empowering our people, developing sustainable products, protecting our planet and conducting business with the highest ethical standards. These commitments form the foundation of our sustainability strategy and are reflected in our four pillars.
People
Strengthening our workforce and communities
At Aptiv, people are the performance engine behind our strategy. We win through execution — by empowering a high-performing, inclusive team that delivers for customers at scale across our manufacturing sites and technical centers, with the skills, capabilities and culture needed to deliver innovative solutions customers can trust when it matters most.
We are building talent for the convergence of automation, electrification and digitalization — a shift that demands deep capability, a culture that turns values into action, and programs that convert learning, safety and community engagement into measurable business outcomes.
Targets
Health & safety
Achieve and maintain a lost workday case rate below 0.15, well below an average of relevant industry standards of 0.75, by 2035
Products
Innovation for sustainable impact
Aptiv’s innovative solutions help customers reduce emissions, improve efficiency and extend product longevity — accelerating the transition to cleaner, smarter and more efficient technologies. We deliver high-quality solutions that are responsibly designed, developed and manufactured to solve our customers’ toughest challenges, with advanced capabilities in software-defined architectures, intelligent edge systems, sensing, advanced compute, connection systems and lifecycle management.
We build solutions for mission-critical applications across industries — enabling systems to sense, think and act in real time while being optimized across the product lifecycle, and translating evolving customer expectations into measurable performance, sustainability and business outcomes.
Planet
Advancing environmental stewardship
At Aptiv, environmental performance is built into how we operate and innovate. We advance our strategy by lessening the environmental impact of our operations — reducing greenhouse gas emissions, improving energy efficiency and progressing toward long-term climate goals — while enabling low-carbon, more resource-efficient technologies across mission-critical applications.
We are supporting the transition to a more sustainable future — a shift that requires disciplined execution, operational efficiency and technologies customers can trust to improve performance, reliability and lifecycle impact at scale.
Targets
Climate Change
100% reduction of Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2035
Climate Change
Net zero scope 3 emissions by 2050
Waste
Achieve a 3% increase in the waste diversion rate across all global sites by 2035
Platform
Strengthening governance and ethical business practices
Aptiv’s Platform pillar underpins our sustainability framework. We deliver through strong governance, ethical business practices and responsible supply chain management — with the compliance systems, policies, processes and accountability needed to operate with integrity and to manage environmental and social risks across the value chain.
Aptiv’s approach turns values into action through established practices across ethics and compliance, anti-corruption, human rights, responsible sourcing, supplier standards, data privacy, and cybersecurity — creating the foundation for resilient operations and the delivery of Aptiv’s mission.
