Governance

Robust sustainability governance framework
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. It is an elementary responsibility of the Board of Directors (BoD). The Nomination and Compensation Committee (NCC) of the BoD works closely with Accelleron executive management to prepare strategic discussions to inform BoD decisions on sustainability.
The CEO is supported by a Sustainability Committee consisting of the senior financial, human resources and sustainability, communications, value chain, legal, strategy and investor relations executives. The committee meets on a regular basis to ensure swift collaboration and coordination between all departments, as well as effective communication with the NCC and BoD.
Members of the Executive Committee (EC) are responsible for implementing the sustainability strategy, cascading targets and measures throughout the organization, assigning responsibilities, and reviewing progress. A designated Global Health, Safety and Environment team and a Sustainability Manager report to the Chief Human Resources and Sustainability Officer, and inform and support the sustainability activities of the CEO and EC.
