Expeditors International of Washington Inc discloses limited information regarding its lobbying governance processes. The company states that it does not participate in trade associations that seek to influence policy, law, or regulations, and requires employees attending sustainability-focused associations to comply with its Code of Business Conduct and be conversant in its sustainability strategy. It also emphasizes adherence to its Governance Principles and Code of Business Conduct, which are periodically re-acknowledged by employees to ensure ethical behavior and alignment with company policies. However, while the Board of Directors oversees enterprise risks and sustainability efforts, there is no explicit mention of a governance process specifically for lobbying activities, nor any mechanisms for monitoring or aligning lobbying with climate-related goals. Additionally, the company does not have a public commitment to align engagement activities with the goals of the Paris Agreement and does not plan to adopt one in the next two years. This indicates limited governance in the area of lobbying, particularly climate-related lobbying.
