Better Health for All

Wizz Air's core service of air travel is considered health-neutral. The company demonstrates strong commitment to mental health through its comprehensive Employee Assistance Program (EAP), which provides 24/7 access to independent psychologists and experts for employees and their relatives for various mental health issues.

This is further supported by events like 'Women On Air' focusing on mental health and work-life balance. For healthcare data, the EAP ensures information shared is strictly confidential and requires informed, voluntary, and written consent for communication. Regarding health externalities, Wizz Air reports 52 grammes of CO2 emissions per passenger kilometre in F24 and aims for a 25% reduction by 2030. Its A321neo aircraft offer a nearly 50% reduction in noise footprint and a 50% reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions, indicating substantial mitigation efforts for environmental impacts that can have indirect health effects. The company's operations do not involve health-related patents, food products, or clinical trials, and its services do not have addiction potential.

Kind to Animals

As a service-oriented airline, Wizz Air's core business model does not involve activities typically assessed by most 'Kind to Animals' KPIs. The company does not produce products requiring cruelty-free certification or animal testing, nor does it operate animal husbandry or engage in animal agriculture, making these KPIs not applicable. While Wizz Air launched a biodiversity educational campaign in March 2024, sharing information with 6 million customers

, no measurable biodiversity impact or species recovery metrics were provided. The company is improving its third-party risk assessment and management approach, with a special focus on ESG topics , but no specific percentage of suppliers audited for animal welfare compliance is stated. Investments in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) research and development are mentioned , but these are not related to animal-free technologies. Similarly, engagement with policymakers and regulators is noted , but does not specifically pertain to animal welfare policy improvement.
