Corporate Responsibility

At Cobham, we work to make corporate responsibility part of everything we do.

As a diverse, global company and an innovative industry leader, Cobham takes its commitment to corporate responsibility and sustainability seriously. We don't just comply with the laws and regulations that govern us - we strive to act ethically and with integrity in everything we do. We do things right while doing the right thing.

 

The Cobham approach to corporate responsibility and sustainability is simple: we believe by working together to draw out the most innovative ideas from our people, we can all play a role in contributing to a better world.

  • We recognize that high performance comes from building trust, which in turn comes from engaging our employees. We are working with our employees to create a great place to work.

  • We are committed to attracting talent from a diverse range of backgrounds and making sure that everyone succeeds on the basis of their own merit. Emerging talent is a key area of focus for us and we are members of the 5% Club, having publicly committed to employing 5% of our UK workforce as apprentices, graduates and undergraduate placements by 2019.

  • In addition to doing the right thing, acting ethically, safely and environmentally responsibly is critical to our business operations and the management of our supply chain.

Key Ethical Statement

At Cobham we recognise that acting responsibly and sustainably creates value for our stakeholders. We believe in making this part of everything we do. We achieve this through strong corporate governance, always improving key stakeholder relationships, finding innovative uses of our technology for positive social and environmental impact, striving for the highest ethical standards, developing our people, pursuing a zero harm policy and engaging in our communities.

Diversity & Inclusion

At Cobham, diversity is essential to our success. We have a culture of team work and collaboration, and we need the best and most innovative minds to help us solve the world's greatest challenges. To have the best people, we draw from a broad pool of applicants. Diversity means we do not discriminate based on race, religion, sex, age, national origin, disability, qualified veteran status, sexual orientation and gender identity. Our people have the right to feel included and valued by their team and by the company, regardless of their life experience.
