EnLink focuses on the best interests of our stakeholders and makes decisions with our long-term sustainability strategy in mind.
Sustainability Background
EnLink has been focused on sustainability, as our Core Values have long emphasized the importance of safety, integrity, people, innovation, and excellence.
In response to increasing focus on environmental, social, and governance or “ESG" issues, we established an official sustainability program in 2018, issuing our inaugural Sustainability Report shortly thereafter. Since then, we consistently have developed the program structure and goals to align with our company strategy, industry developments, and stakeholder expectations. The timeline below shows our sustainability achievements to date.

Sustainability Structure
EnLink’s companywide sustainability policy drives our sustainability approach and communicates expectations to employees. In 2021, EnLink elevated sustainability to one of our companywide strategic plan’s five focus areas and established a new sustainability structure. The new structure includes a Sustainability Core Team composed of leaders from various departments including Legal; Environmental, Health, and Safety; Human Resources; Internal Audit; Investor Relations; and Communications. This structure allows for a diverse consideration of ESG-related topics across the company.
Sustainability Focus Areas and Data Assurance
EnLink monitors and reports progress in three main sustainability areas, as summarized below. These focus areas are reviewed regularly by the Sustainability Core Team and may expand or change periodically to meet evolving sustainability best practices, company needs, and industry trends.
- Environmental Stewardship, which includes energy transition, energy use and emissions, environmental performance, environmental conservancy and care, biodiversity, and asset integrity and reliability.
- Social Responsibility, which includes employee, contractor, and public safety; emergency preparedness and response; employee development; diversity, equity, and inclusion; community involvement; and supply chain.
- Governance and Ethics, which includes corporate governance, code of business conduct and ethics, risk management and business continuity, cybersecurity, and sustainability reporting.
EnLink’s Internal Audit team conducts an extensive review of EnLink’s annual Sustainability Report, assessing the completeness and accuracy of the data and evaluating the report’s metrics, components, and attributes against industry standards and best practices. The report is reviewed by our executive leadership and Board of Directors prior to issuance.
