Speaking on this occasion, Alba’s CEO Ali Al Baqali said:
“As the world’s largest aluminium smelter ex-China, we have the responsibility to make the Right Choice Today for a Better Tomorrow.
Alba’s ESG Roadmap is an all-inclusive approach that embeds our ambitious targets to address the challenges that are and will affect us. The six priority areas outlined in the Roadmap will accelerate our pace to further sustainable value for our people and society.”
Led by the CEO, a special ESG Taskforce Committee has also been created to evaluate the ESG-linked initiatives for each of the 6 priorities and monitor the Company’s achievements.
