Growing our business means looking beyond the bottom line. Practices that help to ensure integrity, compliance and the protection of data, while engaging with our industry and our Board, help to drive sustainable growth today and into the future.
Maintaining a sound corporate governance structure is central to fulfilling Atlas Air Worldwide’s mission of being our customers’ first choice and most valued partner. We strive to outperform expectations and lead responsibly in everything we do. Our corporate governance program is built on complete transparency, which helps build and sustain public trust in our Company.
At Atlas, being a trusted partner means upholding an unwavering commitment to the highest level of legal and ethical conduct, honesty and integrity. Integrity is one of our core values, and we are committed to accountability and transparency in all our global operations and in how we interact with our customers, suppliers, regulators, investors and each other.
Our business is built on safety, security and compliance. We regard legal and regulatory compliance and cooperation with regulatory authorities as core responsibilities. As such, we take every opportunity to lead in the development and application of best practices and compliance with emerging rules and policies even before they become mandatory.
We are committed to protecting our business and our stakeholders by upholding the highest standards of conduct and performance concerning our data privacy, cybersecurity and business resiliency practices. We rely on best-in-class technologies, procedures and training to enforce the safety and security of our systems and assets and to protect our data and the data entrusted to us by our customers and partners.
Atlas Air Worldwide engages with policymakers to advocate on a range of policy issues that are important to our customers, employees and our business. Our company connects the world and keeps supply chains moving. Frequently, legislative and regulatory proposals are introduced that, if passed, could complicate our work connecting global markets. It’s important that Atlas maintains open channels of communication with policymakers to protect our ability to deliver for our customers.
We weigh in on numerous issues, including those related to increased tariffs, state and local tax initiatives, airport development, or proposals that could erode our strong safety record. However, when meeting with policymakers, our Company highlights three advocacy initiatives – advancing sustainability, bolstering the aviation workforce and supporting global trade.
