Our sustainability targets express our focus areas and provide information on Wärtsilä’s performance. The targets are approved by our Board of Management and their implementation is monitored on a regular basis. Each target has a designated owner responsible for preparing action plans, overseeing their implementation, and reporting on progress. The management teams of the businesses and global functions oversee the execution of target actions.
