Our workforce is governed by a comprehensive set of policies designed to prevent risks, injuries and any harm at work, ensuring fair and equitable treatment, and protection of human rights. Our Human Rights Policy and Employee Code of Conduct (The Code) have been developed to set a high level of commitment within these areas including ethical principles and standards. Human Rights Policy: Our Human Rights policy outlines our commitment to respect human rights, including labour rights, of people in Vestas’s own workforce and our value chain. Vestas applies international, best practice standards in circumstances where local laws and regulations set lower standards and do not prohibit their application. The policy applies globally in our own operations and therefore covers all members of our workforce. The commitments in this policy also apply to our business partners, such as customers and suppliers, across our whole value chain where we seek to use our leverage to promote respect for human rights. The policy addresses the management of impacts, risks, and opportunities related to working conditions and equal treatment and opportunities for all. This includes respecting the labour rights of our own workforce and engaging with our own workforce. The policy is available for all employees and other stakeholders at our corporate website. The application of the policy is monitored through our due diligence framework both upstream and downstream in our value chain, as well as through our Corporate-Wide Human Rights Assessment conducted every three years. The Human Rights Policy was introduced in 2010, before which we considered various internal stakeholders, and it was was revisited in 2015 and 2019. The policy is signed by the Board Chair, and Executive Management holds the highest level of accountability for implementing the policy.

We have identified two overarching decarbonisation levers. We allocate financial resources and dedicated resources to meet our emission reduction targets:

• Transition to renewable energy across our own operations to reduce scope 1 and 2 emissions.
• Work with suppliers to reduce supply chain scope 3 emissions from materials and transport.

Scope of priority actions: We prioritise the implementation of our transition plan through priority actions, which are actions that have the greatest potential to reduce our GHG emissions. The scope of these priority actions includes our own operations (scope 1 and 2) and upstream value chain (scope 3). We track progress on these actions across all geographical areas where we operate, and we work in implementation with stakeholders across manufacturing, construction, and service operations, as well as with our suppliers. Vestas acknowledges that transition plans for GHG reductions could potentially have some material impacts on workers. For example, we acknowledge the need to continue to assess and consider the feedback from our colleagues in Service and Manufacturing, and our transitioning to electric vehicles (EVs), to ensure these EVs meet all requirements for standard vehicles and that sufficient training is provided to operate the vehicles.
