Our Sustainability Approach

People hiking

OMV’s Strategy 2030 sets out the company’s transformation toward an integrated chemicals, fuels, and energy business, with the ambition to become a net-zero business by 2050. Sustainability-relevant measures are integrated into our strategy and business processes, guided by our material topics.

Acting responsibly helps OMV build trust-based relationships with employees, customers, investors, suppliers, and other stakeholders. OMV has defined targets and actions to manage material sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities and to support the implementation of our Strategy 2030.

Our Sustainability Framework

Our sustainability framework establishes a structured approach to managing the five strategic focus areas set out in our Strategy 2030: Net-Zero Transformation; Natural Resources Management; Health & Safety; People & Their Human Rights; and Ethical Business Practices – across the three pillars of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG).

Analysis of materiality

In 2023, OMV carried out its first materiality assessment in line with the requirements of the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS). The assessment was based on the double materiality principle, considering both impact and financial materiality.

Our Sustainability Governance Structure

Sustainability topics are fully integrated into the overall governance structure of the company. Our sustainability governance structure sets out responsibilities for overseeing and implementing our sustainability initiatives, ensuring our efforts are integrated throughout all levels of our decision-making and operations.
