Etihad Corporate Conscious Choices is turning sustainable commitments into powerful actions for businesses worldwide.
Taking corporate social responsibility is more achievable than ever with Etihad’s sustainable rewards programme. Etihad Airways is making it easier for businesses and employees to travel sustainably – and be recognised for doing so with new and exciting initiatives.
Corporate Conscious Choices is the world’s first corporate rewards programme that’s dedicated to helping businesses reach their sustainability goals. In this guide we’ll take a closer look at the programme, how it can benefit businesses and what real changes it makes for the planet.
Etihad’s programme is fostering a sustainable mindset in the aviation industry, with initiatives that will benefit everyone – not just businesses, but the whole planet.
The programme gives businesses the power to reach their sustainability goals faster. Thanks to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) investments, green surcharge fares and Etihad Guest Miles, members can become empowered to reduce their impact on the planet and deliver on company promises to be greener..
The programme enables businesses to adopt climate-smart travel practices, from offsetting their carbon footprint to investing in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). This will not only reduce the environmental impact of corporate air travel, but also increase ESG score – a measurement of a company’s long-term environmental, social and governance risks.
Corporate Conscious Choices members are given the chance to raise their business profiles on a global scale. The programme helps companies send a clear message to their partners that they are becoming leaders in sustainable travel, taking real actions to improve their social responsibility.
The Corporate Conscious Choices programme offers a range of ESG initiatives that support the long-term growth of corporate organisations. These financial incentives don’t just help businesses secure investments and improve ESG scores, but they ensure all company efforts towards sustainability contribute to Scope 3 emissions reductions. Scope 3 encompasses all indirect emissions produced as part of the company’s function, including transportation and business travel – a vital way of measuring a company’s carbon footprint.
Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is central to the future of air travel, sustainability and our planet. The Corporate Conscious Choices programme gives companies the opportunity to purchase SAF in bulk and invest in the future.
SAF is made from natural resources, including plants, recycled cooking oils and algae. Its composition is similar to traditional jet fuel, but with one core difference: SAF has the potential to reduce net carbon emissions by 80%.
SAF investments are a smart way to reduce future emissions rather than offsetting existing ones, which helps to reduce business’ Scope 3 emissions.
With Corporate Conscious Choices, companies have the power to choose how they’d like to offset their emissions, and how much. To offset 100% of the emissions produced by corporate air travel, businesses can opt to pay a green surcharge on every ticket.
Green surcharges will be invested in global projects that significantly reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.
By choosing to earn Etihad Guest Miles, businesses are able to offset 50% of the emissions produced every time an employee flies with Etihad. Miles are used to support carbon offset projects around the world, from protecting forests to supporting wind power plants.
When flying as an employee, individuals can also benefit from Etihad’s green initiatives by collecting Tier Miles as an Etihad Guest member.
We all understand the impact that flying has on the planet. But there’s no denying the power of a connected world.
That’s why Etihad are on a journey to transform the future of aviation.
