Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Policy (DEIB Policy) sets out Vestas’ approach and strategy to diversity and inclusion. The policy includes our DEIB mission statement and commitment to ensuring all potential, future and current employees are guaranteed equal opportunities and fair treatment, regardless of their background. The policy prioritises commitments to diversity, equitable opportunities, an inclusive culture, inclusive leadership, and a respectful, discrimination-free workplace that adapts to regional needs. The policy focuses on people from groups at particular risk of vulnerability related to gender, ethnicity, age, and seniority. By focusing on equitable opportunities, Vestas ensures that all employees, regardless of their background or individual circumstances, have access to resources and support needed to succeed and thrive. In case of discrimination Vestas encourages employees to utilise our whistleblower platform EthicsLine, which is further documented in section SI-3.

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.
